If you need to modify functionality, instead of appearance, you will often need to insert custom PHP code in to your starter child theme. This code should almost always be placed in your child theme’s functions.php
file. Inside this file, you’ll see a line at the bottom that says this:
1 2 3 |
/** * Add your customizations below this line. */ |
This is where you add your custom PHP code.
