A child theme template for the roots WordPress theme :: http://www.rootstheme.com/ Keep the roots theme untouched and customize as you see fit.
Things to note ::
• This child theme assumes that the roots theme is in a folder called 'roots' (in the Wordpress themes folder, of course) • Change the name of the folder to whatever you want the child theme to be called • Create a custom menu - the roots menu probably won't be what you want • If you want to customize any template files just copy them into the child theme directory in the same location and they will override the original.
