 * Hi,
 * I’ve seen a couple of posts dedicated to this issue and having followed the instructions
   and having no success I’m writing my plea for help.
 * I have this:
    Broken Themes
 * The following themes are installed but incomplete. Themes must have a stylesheet
   and a template.
 * Name Description
    My Child Theme The parent theme is missing. Please install 
   the “Customizr” parent theme.
 * This is the code I used:
 * /*
    Theme Name: My Child Theme Theme URI: http: //mysite.com/ Description: This
   is a custom child theme I have created. Author: My Name Author URI: http: //mysite.
   com/ Template: Customizr Version: 0.1 */ [@import](https://wordpress.org/support/users/import/)
   url(‘../Customizr/style.css’);
 * Can anyone help me?
