    I am really not understanding the syntax for this entry:
    @import url(“../twentytwelve/style.css”);

    Can please be more specific? This is what I got from that and tried, but it did not work:

    @(“https://globalmanagementalliance.com/wp/themestwentytwelve/style.css”);

    Thanks

    The code for importing the style sheet from the parent theme (twentytwelve, in this case) on your WordPress site is exactly this:

    @import url("../twentytwelve/style.css");

    It can’t possibly get any more specific. It is exactly what you see. Do not change it to @("https://globalmanagementalliance.com/wp/themestwentytwelve/style.css");

    By the way, if your WordPress site is at nyenpubyrl-soprano.com, why you are using this in your child theme style sheet?

    @import url("https://globalmanagementalliance.com/twentytwelve/style.css");

    That isn’t even on the same domain.

    You may want to go back and review the instructions for creating a Child Theme again.

    Yes I am a bit confused about the child theme creation. I decided to use a css plugin instead until I can understand it better.

    Explaining that the code “can’t possibly get any more specific” and needed no changes, was helpful. I mistakenly assumed the (@impokenlyrt url) was to be replaced with my domain name.

    I am learning code on my on and grateful for direction.
