 * Hello everybody!
    I have installed Pure-Simple Theme and created a Child Theme
   because I didn’t find the child.zip downloading the Theme. So I have created 
   a style.css fyle and a functions.php and I activated the child-theme. Now I would
   like to make some changes to the header.php, I have copied all text of the original
   theme to my child’s header.php fyle, but my website’s pages change completely.
   My style.css is: /*
 * Theme Name: Pure & Simple Child
 * Description: Child Theme del tema Pure and Simple
 * Author URI: [http://bbpisabelleville.it/](http://bbpisabelleville.it/)
 * Template: pure-simple
 * Text Domain: puresimple-child
 * Version: 3.0.3
 * */
 * And here is my functions.php:
 * <?php
    add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘theme_enqueue_styles’ ); function theme_enqueue_styles(){
   wp_enqueue_style( ‘parent-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’);}?
   >
 * Where did I mistake? Is there a particular option to let the child-theme of Pure-
   Simple work correctly?
    Thanks so much to anyone can help! Paola

 * Hi Paola,
 * The way you are creating the child theme seems to be ok.
 * We had visited your website and couldn’t track out the difference you got after
   updating child theme. Compressed css is making us problem to look over css of
   your website.
 * Please do share us screenshot illustrating difference of child and parent theme.
 * Thanks
