Theme customization options are located at "Appearance > Customize ". Current options available are:

* Colors: Adjust sitewide colors (Background Color, Links, Link Hover, Navigation)
* Background Image: Add a main background header image to the home and blog pages
* Pages & Posts: Adjust the style of page and post featured images

== For Developers ==

The theme was developed to make it easy for developers to customize and Sass files are included within the theme files at /scribe/scss/. The theme us build with the [Zurb Foundation Framework](http://foundation.zurb.com) and [Underscores](http://underscores.me).

From terminal, navigate to the theme folder and run:

sass --watch scss/style.scss:style.css

= Child Theme =

In your child theme's functions.php file, add the following function:

function scribe_child_enqueue_parent_theme_style() {
  wp_enqueue_style( 'scribe-parent-foundation-style', get_template_directory_uri().'/vendor/foundation/foundation.css' );
  wp_enqueue_style( 'scribe-parent-style', get_template_directory_uri().'/style.css' );
  wp_dequeue_style( 'scribe-style' );
  wp_enqueue_style( 'scribe-child-style', get_stylesheet_directory_uri().'/style.css' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'scribe_child_enqueue_parent_theme_style', 99 );
