# Child theme

There are no child themes in Shopware 6 as there were in Shopware 5. Shopware 6 offers you the possibility to create a duplicate of the base theme. With this duplicate you can create a separate configuration, for example for an additional Sales Channel.

For more information on theme duplicates, click here: [ThemeWare® duplicates](/knowledge-base/tutorials/configuration/themeware-duplicates.md)

#### Template customizations

Template customizations are not possible with theme duplicates, because duplicates do not have their own file level. Template files must therefore be implemented in their own themes or with extensions.
