7,673 PointsIs @import no longer a best practice for a child theme?
In the WordPress Codex for Child Themes (https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes), it states that:
"The final step is to enqueue the parent and child theme stylesheets. Note that the previous method was to import the parent theme stylesheet using @import: this is no longer best practice, as it increases the amount of time it takes style sheets to load. The correct method of enqueuing the parent theme stylesheet is to add a wp_enqueue_scripts action and use wp_enqueue_style() in your child theme's functions.php."
Should this be the process to follow moving forward?
