 * Hello
    I recently started with a fresh install of wordpress to implement the 
   WP symposium plugin properly. However, when I created a child theme after installing
   WP symposium, it changed the layout of the website, and the pages did not format
   properly. What files need to be imported and/or changed in a child theme to get
   WP symposium to work properly with a child theme? Thanks in advance.

 * If you would please take this to [http://wpsymposium.com](http://wpsymposium.com)
   as we handle support there. Also please when you post include your version of
   WP and WPS and in this case what theme you are talking about.
 * We have to know what your talking about in full in order to help you.
 * Thank you

 * This sounds like a theme issue, WPS doesn’t alter theme files so on the forum
   we should be able to hep out hopefully! 🙂
