Hi Andrew,
I did as you suggested, and still have the same issue.
Clips of CSS and functions.php

/*
Theme Name: Twenty Seventeen Child Theme
Theme URI: http://hyperlinkcode.com/blog/twenty-seventeen-child-theme/
Description: A bare-bones child theme for use with WordPress Twenty Seventeen Theme. Pick matching colors quickly at html-color-names.com.
Author: Edward Zivkovic
Author URI: http://www.ezau.com/
Template: twentyseventeen
Version: 1.0.0
*/

/* Add Custom CSS after this line */

/* Demo Johnson Box code courtesy of: http://hyperlinkcode.com/blog/html-johnson-box/ */

<?php
add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘theme_enqueue_styles’ );
function theme_enqueue_styles() {
wp_enqueue_style( ‘parent-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’ );
wp_enqueue_style( ‘child-style’,
get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’,
array(‘parent-style’)
);
}

Could it be anything to do with WAMP?
Best wishes
Paul

Hi Andrew, Sorry if I’ve done something wrong about posting in CSS missing.
here is my child CSS header and I have included, the functions php header too.

/*
Theme Name: Accelerate Child Theme
Theme URI: http://themegrill.com/themes/accelerate/
Description: Child Theme for Accelerate
Author: ThemeGrill
Author URI: http://themegrill.com
Template: accelerate
Version: 1.0
*/

<?php
/*
* Child theme functions file
*
*/
function accelerate_child_enqueue_styles() {

$parent_style = ‘accelerate_style’; //parent theme style handle ‘accelerate_style’

//Enqueue parent and chid theme style.css
wp_enqueue_style( $parent_style, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’ );
wp_enqueue_style( ‘accelerate_child_style’,
get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’,
array( $parent_style ),
wp_get_theme()->get(‘Version’)
);
}
add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘accelerate_child_enqueue_styles’ );
?>

Thank you
Grey

Hi Andrew,
Running windows 7 pro 64bit
Wampserver latest
Theme accelerate by themegrill
with the theme’s own child, they made it
Activated the child, main theme is installed
Go to Appearance-edit
Get the “Heads-up” about using a child, not edit main theme, but it is a child theme.
Cannot use editor, comes back cannot save.
Interestingly enough, did a reinstall of everything BUT used WP4.6.8, and refused the update to 4.9, and can edit child .css.
As an aside, The new idea of flagging CSS errors is good But useless, if you can’t edit them.
Thanks for your time
Grey
