Twenty Eleven child theme: odd behavior
-
I successfully created a child theme of the twentyeleven theme, and activated it without changing anything. I’m planning to change the widths on the site a bit, so I copied that part of the default CSS into the child style.css file in preparation for changing some of the values later. This is what’s in the style.css file in the child theme’s folder:
/* Theme Name: Twenty Eleven CHILD Theme URI: http://www.mysite.com/twentyelevenCHILD Description: A child theme of 2011 default WordPress theme. Author: Myself Author url: http://www.mysite.com Version: 1.0 Tags: black, blue, white, fixed-width, custom-header, theme-options Template: twentyeleven */ @import url('../twentyeleven/style.css'); /* =Structure ----------------------------------------------- */ /*change widths here */ #primary { float: left; margin: 0 -26.4% 0 0; width: 100%; } #content { margin: 0 34% 0 7.6%; width: 58.4%; } #secondary { float: right; margin-right: 7.6%; width: 18.8%; }
But when I look at either the Live Preview or the activated child theme, the site MENUS are not the same! (Some items do not appear) Do I need to also copy over the PHP files from the original twentyeleven theme folder into my twentyelevenCHILD folder? There’s nothing in the documentation to suggest that this is necessary. I’m just trying to understand how the child themes work…
