Advanced PDF Invoice Builder

💼 Professional PDF invoice and document builder for WordPress — visual drag-and-drop editor with WooCommerce integration.

The Child Theme Wizard lets you create a new child theme without the need for additional tools, right from within the WordPress admin interface. Once activated you can find it under Tools – Child Theme Wizard.
Specify a parent theme, customise options such as title and description and click Create Child Theme. Upon success you will find your new theme under Appearance – Themes.
You have the option to include GPL License Terms if you wish. The Wizard will automatically create a thumbnail too. In future versions I may include an image uploader for this feature.

Child Theme Wizard

I actually installed another plugin before this one. I wanted to check theme overrides on a VPS (Dreamhost) install. This worked, the other plugin did not!

It was simple to use, although if a link to the page to generate could be placed on the plugin listing page, that'd be fantastic.

One other minor comment, is that I feel all themes should be lower-case and it generated an uppercase folder... wp-content/themes/Twenty-Twenty-Child

Really every theme should have this built-in, it's a great utility and saves a lot of boilerplate generation.

Great plugin, did what I wanted

Creates a child theme with one click and lets you customise its options.
