    I’m using Freesia Empire Theme, and I’ve followed the instructions here: https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes
    But, it gives me an error saying ‘Template is missing. Standalone themes need to have a index.php template file. Child themes need to have a Template header in the style.css stylesheet.’. Could anyone please solve my problem? Thanks in advance!

    I managed to fix the problem! All you need to do is, check the details in the style.css file and make sure they’re correct. I realized I hadn’t written the Description, and Template. Once I corrected it, everything started working fine. You can check it here:
