Make your CSS changes in your Child Theme stylesheet;
#logoname {
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
#logoname a {
float: none;
}
I tried by inserting the above into my child style.css but to no avail. I think I should have used the word header image rather than logo.

Can you link the webpage with the issue?

Your Child Theme doesn’t look activated. Are you sure you activated it through the dashboard?
Just double-checked. If I go to the editor it just shows my header.php and my style.css and if I go to Themes, my WP-Creativix-Child is on top.
Still not coming right with this problem on http://iswconsultants.com …
#logoname { is not found under my style.css but rather under my style.php.
I have tried to create a child style.php with the following code:
/*
Theme Name: WP-Creativix-Child
Theme URI: http://www.iswconsultants.com/
Description: ISWC Child WP-Creativix Theme
Author: Susan Offer
Author URI: http://www.iswconsultants.com/about-us/
Template: wp-creativix
Version: 1.0
*/
@import url(‘../wp-creativix/style.php’);
#logoname {
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
#logoname a {
float: none;
}
but it’s still not working… 🙁

Try;
#logoname a:hover,
#logoname a {
float: none;
}
#logoname a {
display: table;
margin: 0 auto;
}

Your Child Theme is not active, make sure you activate it through the dashboard.
Have triple checked that my child theme is activated unless I’m doing something really stupid (which is not outside the realm of my current reality). I can see this as I have no search area on my menu bar.

Would be most grateful if you could assist – am going bald at a rapid rate of knots!
Ok, found out what the problem was. The change has to be made in the style.php not the style.css. The .php does not overwrite the parent theme as the .css does.
Decided to do away with my child theme as most of my changes are required in the .php file rather than the .css. Thought about forking the theme but decided against it as my changes are minor and quick to do should the main theme update. Just have to have them well documented so I don’t forget what I did.
#logoname {
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
#logoname a {
float: none;
}
worked nicely in my .php file to centre my logo.
Thank you!
