hey all. following simon's directions, i have copied the postloop into my child theme. 

i did that, but i don't think i renamed it correctly.

 

i renamed it to section-2.php

 

the name of the section (at the folder level) is still postloop.

 

so: pagelines-template-theme > sections > postloop > section-2.php

 

this can't be right, can it?

 

and, if the php is named correctly, is it alright to leave the "postloop" folder with the name "postloop"?

 

thank you.

Suzy,

 

You don't rename the section.php, but the folder containing it.

 

For example, inside a section folder called boxes there's a file called section.php. The same for every section.  But if you wanted to make a new boxes section, you'd copy the folder, rename it and call it something like boxes2, leaving the section.php inside perfectly intact.

I don't believe so.
