Is is possible to copy the header.php to the childtheme? I have made a little change in the code but I dont want that this change will be lost after a theme update..

I already have a child theme with only my style.css.. I read on google that if you want to change the header.php you have to make also a file called header.php in the child. Do i have to replace the whole code of the original file into the child file or only the code that you want to change?

Thanks

Hello,

You should insert only the code you want to change.
Also please read this article http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes (“Referencing / Including Files in Your Child Theme” paragraph).

Regards,
Eva Kemp.
