Hello,
I’m new in wordpress development.

I’m using catch everest free theme for my site.
I have already created the child theme with style.css successfully, but now I need to change some logic in Social icons alignments. As I noticed they are in catcheverest-functions.php file.
Can you provide a guide how to make an overridden file of this function for my child theme?
I don’t want to change anything in parent php files.

Thanks.

@TBM: For child theme you can refer to this article at http://catchthemes.com/blog/create-child-theme-wordpress/ . Can you explain me with your site URL, what changes are you looking form. As some changes just need CSS and other you might need to do custom functions.

@Sakin: Here is my site
This may sound strange, but for example I want youtube icon to be second in social link alignments and also I don’t want to increase search field when mouse is entered there.
Also I may need to customize some more things in functions, so I wanted to have child function php.

I saw already the link you provided but to be honest do not understood much, because it on another theme example. 🙂

@TBM:
1. For social icons, you can just copy the function catcheverest_social_networks() from catcheverest-functions.php file. Then you will see the block of code with ////Youtube, you need to move the whole block position.

2. For reach focus width, you can add the following css your child theme style.css file.
```
#header-right #s:focus {
    width: 121px;
}
```
