       /* Your customizations start here */
       ```
   
 * And this for your functions:
 *     ```
       <?php
   
       ?>
       ```

 * Save your old one first.
    and remember there cannot be any white space on the
   functions.php file **before** <?php ** or after ?>

 * Thank you. I changed style.css and functions.php but something was wrong because
   image, pages… were only on the left half. so i put this:
 * [@import](https://wordpress.org/support/users/import/) url(‘../oneengine/style.
   css’);
 * to the end of style.css now it looks good. hope it will be alright.

 * i had trouble making a child theme as well, try the orbisius child theme plugin,
   no need to go through ftp and you can create the child theme from your dashboard.
   it makes the style.css folder and then you just go to the plugin’s editor to 
   make changes. super easy
