I am new to Magento 2. I am having difficulty in creating a child theme. However I have created the child theme now I am facing how to add source for child them.
In my configuration, I have created child theme of Luma, which is child theme of Magento blank theme. I want to extend all css from either parent or grand parent. So decided to not give same name which already exist in parent theme (luma).
I am planning to add _extend-child.less to the parent theme and keep it blank. And creating same filename in child theme where I can add my own CSS or can add call child sources. Now my question is:
- As luma theme is primarily present in vendor directory. I cannot add
_extend-child.lesshere as it might override on upgrade. How could I copy this toapp/design/frontend/Magentodirectory? - Does copying the complete folder
vendor/magento/theme-frontend-luma/toapp/design/frontend/Magento/would work? - Does changing code on
app/design/frontend/Magento/would not be affected on theme update/upgrade? - Any standard way to include my child CSS to luma theme.
Thanks in advance.
