Theme Child

Hi Imon,

I’m loving the Hathor theme so thanks for your hard work on that. However, I seem to have endless problems creating a child theme. I created the .css file with the appropriate folder and parent theme. The child theme will activate but nothing is there. As a last resort I took your recommendation and used the Orbisius Child Theme plugin. It created everything properly, but again… my webpage is blank. Is this a bug? I’m sure I’ve done everything right to create the child themes.

Thanks for any help!

Thanks TQ! I ended up just copying the CSS to a text file and saving it (but I’d be curious to know if others are having trouble with the child theme or if it’s just me). All I really wanted was to make sure my changes to the theme don’t get overwritten with any wordpress updates. For the title font size, you can change the font-size in the style.css. I use header2 and changed it to 55px:

#site-title2 a {
color: #000;
font-size: 55px;
line-height: 36px;
text-decoration: none;
text-align: center;
}
#site-title a {
color: #000;
font-size: 40px;
line-height: 36px;
text-decoration: none;
text-align: center;
}

Imon,

Theme has a bug due to which people (including me) are unable to create child theme. I also tried Orbisius Child Theme, but nothing happened.

I’m too using Simple Custom CSS plugin to implement my custom CSS changes to theme in the hope that they would not be overwritten by any updates.

Thanks to frank181 for reference.

Cheers!

Hi,

I did. Even I tried manually and activate it from Theme Options. It was activated successfully but the site kept on loading and loading but never loaded on my localhost installation.

Cheers!

Yeah, it’s working now. But why one has to click on “Save Options” after theme activation? This seems a bug. Isn’t?

Oh.. I already started with child theme but still it is not too late.
Thanks.
