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.
