In reply to: [Spun] CSS help for making changes to SpunNo problem! Thanks for the suggestion on the google font plugin; it helped!
I went back in and took out the css I posted above because it was just messing up the menu bar alignment. Any suggestions on coding that would actually replace the text with the image?
Thanks again for your help!

In reply to: [Spun] CSS help for making changes to SpunThank you! Here’s the tutorial I used:
http://nathaningram.com/tutorials/easy-social-icons-in-the-wordpress-navigation-menu/
And here’s my attempt at the css (I put it in the css manager)
.menu-instagram {
text-indent: -9999px;
background-image: url(http://enjoyingeverafter.com/wp-admin/images/navibutton_c28x28.png) !important;
background-repeat: no-repeat !important;
margin-left: 100px !important;
width: 50px;
}I will try that plugin you suggested for the fonts. Thanks again!

In reply to: Child theme changes not stickingThank you for responding! But I think I figured it out, accidentally. I logged out and when I logged back in the changes were there. Maybe it needed to refresh?

In reply to: Spun Theme questionsThank you! I went back and switched the line (I had changed it based on comments in the article on creating child themes) and it worked but I have to re-do some of the things I had customized on the parent theme, like the background colors, my header image, etc. Does that seem right? I just want to make sure before I go in and make changes!

In reply to: Spun Theme questionsOk just changed the directory name to spunchild, and then changed it in the style.css file, reloaded it into filezilla and still having trouble. I used the Text Editor on my macbook to create the file.
Do I need the quotes around (“../spun/style.css”); ?
Thanks for your patience!

In reply to: Spun Theme questionsYes, I can activate the child theme but only the content shows up, no design.
The file structure is the same as you listed (except I named the directory Spun Child, not spunchild; is the space and capitalization a problem?)
And yes, there is a space between the semi-colon and “spun” after Template.

In reply to: Spun Theme questions@wpyogi, thank you for your response and the link to the Spun forum. I think this will be very helpful.
I followed the instructions for making a child theme, but when I go to preview or activate the child theme, it’s just a list of the elements from the home page like this:
my site name
Menu
Skip to Content
-Home
(the image from a test post)
(image from test #2)
+
(the widgets I added)No formatting or design shows up.
Here’s a copy of the css file I created for the child theme:
/*
Theme Name: Spun Child
Theme URI: *my site*
Description: This is a custom child theme I have created.
Author: mlml4
Author URI: http: *my site*
Template: spun
Version: 0.1
*/
@import url(“../spun/style.css”);I have this saved in the spun child folder I created, under wp-content/themes
Any advice on what I may be doing wronging would be really helpful!
Thank you!
