  I think it is not so simple. I modified header.php file adding only this line in <head> tag:
  <meta name=”google-site-verification” content=”iLuZlu9_kfOoH9XP_Jki189xq1kswezZn-g0MMo6rfw” />
  
  After, I saved new header.php file in specular-child folder and I get the error that you can see here

  Is there any particular procedure to override theme?
  Thank you

  Hi,
  
  Thanks for the patience, I have checked header file works just fine the only thing is other required files are needed as well. So, to use child theme properly you can add other required files as well and it will be working just fine.
  
  Kindly let me know if you still have any confusion ?
  
  Thanks again

  Hi,
  
  It depends on the tasks you want to perform, like if you want to only avoid those errors then you can to just update those files which having those functions and that’s it. Let me know if you further need anything discussed ?

  Sorry, I keep on not understanding.
  In order to override header.php file, the way, is to modify the file and upload it in specula-child folder?
  If yes, I did it. When I upload modified header.php file in this folder, I get the error you can see here https://www.savinoutdoor.it/screenshot.jpg.
  Here you can see the overrided header.php: https://www.savinoutdoor.it/videos/overrided-header.txt
  
  Here you can see the original header.php: https://www.savinoutdoor.it/videos/original-header.txt
  Why does happen this?

  Hi,
  
  OK, don’t worry at all I have updated files for you. Now you can just make your changes inside your child theme’s header.php and let me know if you are done ?
