I developed a child theme of Twenty Eleven. I need additional theme options, so i added a theme-options.php file inside my child theme’s folder.
However, it appears the option page is still the 2011 theme’s option screen. I can’t either replace or add another one.
Question: what is the correct procedure to add options to a child theme?
In case you wish to see the code, here is my theme-options.php code.
This thread suggests that this isn’t necessarily an intended Child Theme usecase so theme-options.php isn’t explicitly overrideable. It indicates that you should rather be adding extra options using
add_settings_field
and theadmin_init
hook.
