    following instructions from: http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes

    I created a child theme, added the style sheet.

    When I went to active the theme in WordPress, it tells me
    “This theme is broken. Template is missing.”

    I have not altered the twentyeleven parent theme at all & do not know what I need to do to remedy this.

    very low on the learning curve…any help appreciated.

    I had that problem too. I was trying to make a child theme for Twenty Ten. I Named the Parent theme in my child theme like;

    Template: Twenty Ten

    And it asked me to install Twenty Ten. Then I found out that if i change the Template name to;

    Template: twentyten

    It recognized the parent theme. But I have no clue why, because the css stylesheet of the Twenty Ten theme calls the theme “Twenty Ten”. Anybody know why?
