  Hi there,

  I’m relatively new to child themes… could you please tell me how to load in my own customised / edited version of sf-options.php in to my child theme’s functions file?

  I made a copy of the sf-options.php and moved in to child theme/includes/sf-options.php, and I’d like to make it load in to my site instead of the one that currently loads.

  Basically, I would like to customise the descriptions in the backend to make them easier to understand for my client, but I don’t want my descriptions to be overwritten. I have never used a child theme before, so I’m not sure how to load / replace the file with my own.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Hi

  Add this to your functions.php file:

  if (!function_exists('sf_include_theme_options')) {
  		function sf_include_theme_options() {
  			require_once(SF_INCLUDES_PATH . '/sf-options.php');
  		}
  		add_action('after_setup_theme', 'sf_include_theme_options', 0);
  	}
