WordCamp NYC had so much good stuff going I missed plenty of interesting talks. One thread I caught a whiff of, and made a note to explore further, is the use of child themes in WordPress site design. The feature is quite new, just appearing in version 2.7. The ideal is that the parent part of the theme handles the structural type elements, and the child handles the decorative stuff. I missed the child-theme talk at WordCamp, but luckily the session is now posted on WordPress.tv – explore your inner child and get own WordPress child themes going!
