General Guidance on Customizing a WordPress Theme
A. Using WordPress Built-in Options
- Customize Panel (Appearance > Customize): Modify colors, fonts, and layout settings.
- Widgets & Menus (Appearance > Widgets/Menus): Control sidebar and footer content.
- Additional CSS (Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS): Add custom CSS for styling tweaks.
B. Using a Page Builder
- Elementor, WPBakery, Divi, or Gutenberg: Drag-and-drop editors for easy layout customization.
C. Customizing via Child Theme
- Always create a child theme before modifying code to prevent updates from overwriting changes.
- Add custom CSS, PHP functions, or modify templates without affecting the parent theme.
