child theme

Hi,

I have managed to work out how to do a ‘child theme’ but when I go into WordPress Themes, the child theme is there next to parent, but it is just a blank square, and doesn’t show the parent theme as is.

When I activate child theme and go to editor, should I see the same ‘Templates?’

I am confused, as child theme template just shows ‘stylesheet’ with the information I put into FTP.

and says ‘this child theme inherits templates from a parent theme’.
I am not sure what this all means, actually.

/*
Theme Name: Clean Retina Child Theme (this is the theme I am using)
Theme URI: http: //mysite.com/
Description: This is a custom child theme I have created.
Author: name
Author URI: http: //mysite.com/
Template: clean-retina
Version: 0.1
*/
@import url(“../clean-retina/style.css”);

Above is what I have put in filezilla ‘child directory’ style.css folder.

Can someone please tell me if I have done something wrong, or if what I am looking at is correct.
I don’t know how to make the site look the same, adding the changes I made to the parent.
And there are some things I would of expected to be there as they are a part of the theme.

Any help will be gladly appreciated.
🙂
