Tagged: child theme
For some reason I’m not able to get my child theme to work properly. I suspect I’m not using the right code in either the style.css or functions.php; I couldn’t find a single source of the best code to use so I’m not sure I have it right!
I used this tutorial http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/portfolio-item/create-a-child-theme/ and also the WordPress codex tutorial here https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes
Are you able to give me the right code to use to create a child theme? I have added below in private content the code I’m using. The theme is showing up in Appearance on my WordPress dashboard as a ‘broken theme’ with a message that the ‘stylesheet is missing’.
I’m ok to upload via FTP.
Hey Catty47!
Your missing the “template” meta in the comments.
You don’t have to mess with any of that though. See here to download our existing Enfold child theme, http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/downloads/.
Cheers!

Ok, great, thank you. So I can just transfer this whole folder across via FTP into the themes folder of my website, yes?
Sorry, quick check – I have added some template debugging code to my child theme functions.php.
Is the code below in private content correct? I have simply added the code after all other text in the functions.php file.
