I originally created a site using the enfold construction theme. I made changes to the pages (text/images) and I made changes in the Enfold theme and under Appearance/Menu section. I then read how we should use child themes and downloaded the pre-built child theme. Once I activated the child theme, my page content was still there but the header now looks like the default Enfold theme and not the Construction theme (my logo is gone and the menu no longer has a black background, etc).
How do I get the Construction theme look/feel back? This is what was in the style.css of the pre-built file, do I need to change something here to make the parent theme the Enfold construction one?
/*
Theme Name: Enfold Child
Description: A Child Theme for the Enfold WordPress Theme. If you plan to do a lot of file modifications we recommend to use this Theme instead of the original Theme. Updating wil be much easier then.

There is an option in Enfold > import/Export to import main theme settings. This will import the theme options.
If you have made any changes to any php or css files those changes will have to be manually moved from parent to child theme.

I have included a link to my site as well as a link to the construction demo site so you can see what I am talking about. For example these are some of the missing things now in my site with the child demo after I imported the parent theme….
- in the footer, the lines above and below the headings in each of the four columns are not shown
- the font size is smaller in my site
- the font text is different
- if you go to a page under the Services tab and the sidebar on that page has lines above the headings in each section in the demo site but no longer has it in my site (see Interior Design page for example)
- the menu bar color is not the same (I had made some changes in this in the child theme to try and match the construction demo and it looks like it maybe kept my background color choice)
How do I make it take the enfold Construction demo theme as the parent theme and not the enfold Default demo theme?
