Hi,

I searched all over the place but was not able to figure out why my child theme does not load in the full page. When I create my child theme it does not seem to load any of the formatting of the page. It loads some of they styling but everything is shoved to the left.

<code>

/*
Theme Name: Mantra Child
Description: Child theme for the Mantra theme
Author: Grady
Template: Mantra
Version: 1
*/
@import url(“../mantra/style.css”);

</code>

This is what I have. I am not sure if I am missing something or if it is an issue with my localhost that I am building on.

 

Thanks for any help you can offer,

Grady

You shouldn’t even be able to enable that child theme and should be getting a “Broken theme” warning in WordPress instead.

Change

Template: Mantra

to

Template: mantra

Hey,

I did get that error after a while and that did fix it. It still does not explain why I have lost all the formatting and everything is shoved to the left. As you can see in the two screen shots, I am missing a file or something.

I hope that we can get this fixed ASAP so that I can get my site live.

If you’d have the site running on a public domain, I could easily use Firebug’s “Net” functionality to determine which css files fail to load (and why).

But since you are developing this on localhost, you’ll have to inspect this yourself.
