pixeljunky,
It sounds like you have invalid syntax in your funtions.php – you could try posting it here so we can look.
If I had to guess, I would say that you have pasted the code after the final “?>” in the file – it must be in front of it, otherwise the PHP will not be interpreted.

For example:

<?php
/**
* Enqueues child theme stylesheet, loading first the parent theme stylesheet.
*/
function hemingway_child_load_style() {
if ( ! is_admin() ) {
wp_register_style( ‘hemingway_style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’ );
wp_enqueue_style( ‘hemingway_child_style’, get_stylesheet_uri(), array( ‘hemingway_style’ ) );
}
}
add_action( ‘wp_print_styles’, ‘hemingway_child_load_style’ );
?>

Me too. Issue is incorrectly marked as resolved, OP actually extended their CSS to workaround.
The issue first appears in version 1.57 which is why foomep’s site (and ours) works ok with v1.56
There are a lot of changes between these versions, and unfortunatley the changelog.txt disappears at v1.57
However, I have diff-ed a number of files and I think that the problem arises in functions.php at line 89. If I revert:
wp_enqueue_style( ‘hemingway_style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’ );
back to:
wp_enqueue_style( ‘hemingway_style’, get_stylesheet_uri() );
the child theme CSS is correctly loaded.
I’m not saying that this is necessarily the solution, but the problem definitely relates to the child style.css not being correctly enqueued.
