 * Hello everyone,
 * I found the following support thread ([https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-create-child-theme?replies=10](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-create-child-theme?replies=10)),
   but it was not resolved. No one seemed to be able to create a child theme as 
   the way suggested resulted in a blank screen when the child theme was activated.
 * I’ve tried to create a child theme with two different plugins and all I get upon
   activation was a blank white screen.
 * Has anyone here created a child theme successfully with Hathor?
 * Thanks,
    Brian
