# Child theme functions.php file

 * I have a functions.php file in my child theme. The link to the style.css file
   is not present in the pages when I add the functions.php file to my child theme.
   I had to copy the functions.php file from the bootstrap-canvas-wp directory to
   the child theme directory to get the style.css link to appear.
 * Please advise.

 * I added the following line at the bottom of the functions.php file in my child
   theme to get around this problem but I don’t think I should need to do this.
 * wp_enqueue_style(‘style-css’, get_stylesheet_uri());

 * I apologize for your issue. I checked the theme and it has the style sheet uri
   code. Not sure what is occuring.

 * It seems the problem was using the theme in a multisite installation. It behaved
   very differently.
