 * Hi there,
 * I’ve just downloaded the latest version of WordPress onto a localhost, and have
   downloaded the Evolve theme. I have created a child theme, and a child style 
   sheet as well as a functions.php file. Still, the styling does not seem to be
   the same as is on the parent theme.
    The coding for the child stylesheet is here:

 * The coding I have for the child functions.php file is here: [http://pastebin.com/iwfmZZ3P](http://pastebin.com/iwfmZZ3P)
 * There are 4 css files in the parent theme (evolve – style.css, ie.css, editor-
   style.css and editor-style-rtl.css). Do I need to enqueue them all, and if so
   how?
 * Thanks

 * After days of searching and googling, I discovered that the reason the php file
   wasn’t working was that it was saving as a .txt file. Such a simple thing…
