Thread: Changing Widgets in Child Theme?

Changing Widgets in Child Theme?

So, I created a vantage-child theme and my goal is to change the "Create Listing Button" widget text (Btw, why is it not customizable...?).

In my child theme I created the same folder structure of the parent theme:

vantage-child
|-includes
|-widgets.php (copy of the same file in the parent theme)

and in widgets.php I modified the button text.

The problem is...whatever i enter, doesn't show. I had to modify the original file in the parent theme.

Does anybody know why changing that file in the child theme didn't apply?

Thanks
