Hi there,  
We’ve just recently bought a theme from the marketplace. But we’re currently trying to overwrite some files in the theme to customize our website.  
I’m trying this:

`C:\Users\leviv\Documents\STA\Website Migratie\Website\STATheme\STATheme\css\components> hs fetch "/@marketplace/Neambo/Act3/css/components/blog-author.css"`

But I get this:

`[ERROR] A Error has occurred. Failed fetch of file "/@marketplace/Neambo/Act3/css/components/blog-author.css" to "C:\Users\leviv\Documents\STA\Website Migratie\Website\STATheme\STATheme\css\components" from the Design Manager`

Not sure what’s going wrong here, as I’m currently following one of [Hubspot’s blogs](https://developers.hubspot.com/blog/creating-and-customizing-hubspot-child-themes).  
Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi [@Levi\_STA](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/717826),

It looks like the article you shared might have some outdated instructions (it happens sometimes).

The CLI does not allow fetching assets directly from the “@marketplace/..” folder. What you will need to do is clone the file to your child theme in the Design Manager and then you will be able to fetch that cloned file from the child theme folder to be available in your code editor.

An article with more up-to-date information on child themes can be found here:

> So, you’ve found a great theme on the HubSpot Marketplace, but you need to make a few changes to it. Do you make those changes directly in the theme and risk them being overwritten? This sounds like a job for child themes. Creating a child theme...

Hope this helps!

Hi @evaldas!  
Thank you for the quick response. That does help us out, I appreciate it!  
It isn’t really what we had in mind, but if there’s no other way, this works.
