    Hi,

    I created a child theme for my website. I am using the twenty eleven theme.

    How would I write the CSS in the child theme to hide the footer: “Proudly Powered by WordPress”

    My CSS skills are very basic at this point (I’m still learning).

    Thanks in advance.

    Try:

    #site-generator {
display:none;}

    Thanks.

    So I copied and pasted that into my child theme and it seems to have broken the site.

    Here’s my child theme. Please let me know if I’ve done something wrong. Thanks.

    /*
Theme Name: child
Theme URI: simonandturtle.com
Description: Child Theme for twentyeleven
Author: Chad
Author URI: simonandturtle.com
Template: twentyeleven
Version: 0.1
*/

@import url("../twentyeleven/style.css")

#site-generator {
display: none;
}

    Which file in your child theme?
    Should be in the style.css found through Appearance > Editor.
    EDIT:
    OK so thats good!
    In what way did it “break” your site

    It seemed to have take out all styling. It looked like plain HTML with pics.

    Thanks everyone for all your help.

    I figured out my problem. I was missing the semicolon after

    @import url("../twentyeleven/style.css")

    What does your directory structure look like in relation to parent / child.

    See example here.

    Thanks, batharoy!

    My directory structure is fine. I appparently neglected to include a semi-colon at the end of this:

    @import url("../twentyeleven/style.css")
