Child Child Themes?



IN CHILD THEME'S FUNCTIONS.PHP FILE:

// Add Custom Functions File
include_once( get_stylesheet_directory() . '/functions-CLIENTNAME.php' );




IN NEWLY-CREATED CUSTOM FUNCTIONS FILE:

// Add Custom Functions File
// KEEP THIS CODE SAFE.  WHEN YOU UPDATE YOUR PARENT THEME, 
// SIMPLY RE-ADD THIS LINE OF CODE IN THE FUNCTIONS.PHP FILE (un-comment it, of course):
// ALSO, if you renamed your theme in the style.css header, REMEMBER TO RENAME IT AGAIN after updating

// Add Custom Functions File
//include_once( get_stylesheet_directory() . '/functions-CLIENTNAME.php' );

// Add custom stylesheet
add_action( 'wp_head', 'add_custom_stylesheet' );
function add_custom_stylesheet() {
	$customStylesheet=get_bloginfo( 'stylesheet_directory' ).'/style-CLIENTNAME.css';
   echo '<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="'.$customStylesheet.'" media="all">';
}
