Thanks! I had everything lowercase originally like the parent directory, and when it didn’t work I tried uppercase, which of course didn’t work. I changed everything back to lowercase like you said. That didn’t fix it but I noticed the parent theme didn’t have a ‘Text Domain:’ in the style.css. I added that with lowercase ‘readly’ and it finally worked…but is editing the parent theme the only way I could’ve done that? I was trying to avoid doing anything to the parent.
Hi, I’m having this exact same problem, albeit with the parent theme Readly. Readly is definitely installed, but the child theme gets the same “parent theme cannot be found” message. I was working on localhost and it was fine until I moved everything online.
Here’s the beginning CSS of the child theme (sailor.semicool.net):
