I can’t see your images sorry, try using Snaggy: http://snag.gy .
Your spunchild folder is in the right directory, but within that spunchild folder you have a ‘spun’ folder. That spun folder (spunchild > spun) isn’t supposed to exist.
to answer your post….Ive checked there isnt a spun file in my spunchild folder
ok – I’ll look again now youve told me where. So I just delete it? from the FTP file manager?

Within your Child Theme you have another folder, not ‘spun’ actually but ‘spunchild’.

Then put your files in the Child Theme directory (/themes/spunchild).

You still have a “spunchild” folder within a “spunchild” folder.
Hi Andrew
did some more uploading, activiated a different template then reactived Spunchild … and it came back!
Thank you .. again
still having problems with the opacity not being read from the style.css file, do I need to repost?

It’s not ‘capacity’, it’s opacity. See the link I replied with in the thread you started.
