Here's what I did, and I didn't have to make a child theme or change any montezuma files:
- I didn't use any of the theme templates. I cloned them with new names and edited them with my custom changes. This can (and probably should) all be done through the dashboard.
- I didn't change any theme css files. I added the Lazyest Stylesheet plugin. Any css in that files overrides the theme css, and all my custom css is in one place.
- I didn't change any theme php files, like functions.php. Instead, I added the Code Snippets plugin, which supplements the functions.php file. Like the css plugin does for css, it keeps all my custom php in one file. To be sure my custom php doesn't conflict with any wp or theme php, I prefix all my custom function, classe, and global variable names with
By doing it this way, I didn't need to upload any files via ftp, either. Everything is done through the Montezuma dashboard.
I hope some of this helps.
Best,
