 * Alright, thanks. The theme is grid-a-licious. It’s a great theme but apparently
   a little dusty under the hood 😉

 * I copied header.php to the child dir and changed the calls to bloginfo(‘template_directory’);
   and the works fine.
 * But still, any changes I try to make in my child theme’s style.css don’t override
   the parent theme’s css.

 * Okay, I copied all of the files to the child theme directory. The page loads 
   up correctly this way.
 * The page loads correctly even without doing an [@import](https://wordpress.org/support/users/import/)
   in the child style.css. Shouldn’t I have to? The parent’s default style.css is
   empty and the header calls master.css in a sub directory which loads three separate
   css files.
 * The problem I’m having is that no change I make in the child’s style.css overrides
   the parent theme’s css.

 * Chip,
 * Alright, thanks, the only problem with that is that the parent theme developer
   has included all of the page navigation in header.php so if that gets updated
   in the future I’ll have to copy it over again to the child theme. I guess I’m
   realizing that this theme is not very child-theme-friendly.
 * Is there any reason why I wouldn’t be able to import three css files in a subdirectory
   of the parent in my child theme’s style.css? My child theme still remains unstyled
   even with the [@import](https://wordpress.org/support/users/import/) calls to
   the proper location.

 * Chip,
 * Thanks. Right, but since these calls (both css and js) are in the parent’s header.
   php, do I have copy header.php to the child theme and change it there?
 * And I’ll have to do this again in the future for each theme update?

 * Hi Mark,
 * Thanks. I figured that would work but thought there might be another way to do
   it without having to copy those files in future updates – is that the best way?
 * I’m actually having a problem with the css files too. The parent theme uses three
   css files in a subdirectory and when using [@import](https://wordpress.org/support/users/import/)
   in my child theme’s .css to load those files, none of the css shows up and the
   page remains unstyled.
 * I noticed that in the page’s html the page is trying to load the parent theme’s
   css in the child theme’s folder similar to the JS issue above. Is this normal
   to see the html in a child theme call a css file that isn’t there?

 * Really? Not for me, this is a screen shot from IE7 on XP.
 * What’s interesting is bold helvetica/arial/sans fonts on other sites look fine
   on the same machine.
