Child Extensions¶

An extension can have child extensions that are located in extensions/ directory within its own directory. A child extension can be located in the parent theme and child theme on the same relative path. Here are 3 possible cases where an extension can extists and where its child extensions can be placed:

1. If a hello extension is located in framework, child extensions can be placed in: framework, parent theme and child theme.

   ├─parent-theme/
   │ ├─framework/
   │ │ └─extensions/
   │ │   └─hello/
   │ │     └─extensions/
   │ │       ├─hello-child/
   │ │       └─...
   │ └─framework-customizations/
   │   └─extensions/
   │     └─hello/
   │       └─extensions/
   │         ├─hello-child/
   │         └─...
   └─child-theme/
     └─framework-customizations/
       └─extensions/
         └─hello/
           └─extensions/
             ├─hello-child/
             └─...
   

2. If a hello extension is located in parent theme, child extensions can be placed in: parent theme and child theme.

   ├─parent-theme/
   │ ├─framework/
   │ └─framework-customizations/
   │   └─extensions/
   │     └─hello/
   │       └─extensions/
   │         ├─hello-child/
   │         └─...
   └─child-theme/
     └─framework-customizations/
       └─extensions/
         └─hello/
           └─extensions/
             ├─hello-child/
             └─...
   

3. If a hello extension is located in child theme, child extensions can be placed only in child theme.

   ├─parent-theme/
   │ ├─framework/
   │ └─framework-customizations/
   └─child-theme/
     └─framework-customizations/
       └─extensions/
         └─hello/
           └─extensions/
             ├─hello-child/
             └─...
