    Hi,

    I have a few quistions?

    1 Is it better to make changes in Quick CSS or in the style.css of my child theme?

    2 I made some changers in Quick CSS and they are working perfect. I tried to put these changes in to my child theme style.css. But it does not work. What am i doing wrong? Why is it not working?

    (I put functions.php and style.css content in Private Content.)

    Thanks :-)

    Hey hanssmeijsters,

    no need to show us your codes here.

    1.) Either is fine.

    2.) Does it work for you when using a default WordPress theme?

    Best regards,
    Andy

    Hi Andy,

    Thanks.
    1) Oké.

    2) I don’t understand your answer. What do you mean?
    Like i said Quick CSS works. But when i delete my Quick CSS and put the code it into my child theme style.css it is not working. I am trying to figure out how to work with child themes. So i would like to know/learn what is going wrong?

    Best regards,
    Hans

    Okay… something more specific.

    1) I made some changes in Quick CSS. Everything is working.

    2) I deleted the code in Quick CSS and put the changes/code into my child theme style.css and uploaded it to my server. Not working :-(

    3) I uploaded the old (empty) style.css to my server. Just to restore the old situation. Now i changed my style.css in the Dashboard with the Editor under Appearance. I did put in exactly the same code as under 2) and… it works fine :-)

    What i don’t understand is why it is not working in situation 2), when i change the code into my child theme style.css and uploaded it to my server?

    Hi,

    Your initial child theme .css probably had some typo or syntax error (like an unclosed comment).

    Hi Josue,

    That does not sound logic to me, because the same code in Quick CSS and in style.css with Editor is working.

    Like i said i would like to understand what is going wrong. So once again i provide you the code. Mayby you can check out, what i am doing wrong.

    Hi Andy,

    Thanks. I did read the tutorial and watched the video. I installed a working childtheme. So far no problem.

    In the cildtheme i did some customizations in Quick CSS. Worked perfect. But now i want to put the Quick CSS code into my style.css and upload this style.css to my server. When i do that my side is messed up.

    There is a mistake made in the functios.php or in the style.css and i can not figure it out on my self. I provided you the code. Did i made a mistake there?

    best regards,
    Hans

    Hi,

    we can’t really check all your code. Use a default functions.php and style.css, which you can download on the tutorial’s link, to check if it’s working. If yes then you know something in your code is wrong. So remove all your code out one by one to check which one is causing this issue.

    Best regards,
    Andy
