    Hi,
    I set up a child theme so I can update the ‘Proudly powered by WordPress’ footer, however it doesn’t load my header image and background image. Everything else looks fine.
    Would all my stylesheets be loading???
    Any help would be great.
    Thanks,
    Carley.

    However I’ve deactivated the child theme atm.

    Can’t say for sure without looking at the site with the child theme activated whether or not your CSS files are being loaded. You should be able to tell, though. Once you activate your child theme, if you look at the page source, you should see a couple of lines that look like this:

    <link rel='stylesheet' id='parent-style-css'  href='https://www.megschildren.org//wp-content/themes/twentyfourteen/style.css?ver=4.1' type='text/css' media='all' />
    <link rel='stylesheet' id='child-style-css'  href='https://www.megschildren.org//wp-content/themes/twentyfourteen-child/style.css?ver=4.1' type='text/css' media='all' />

    There’s an easier way of hiding the “Proudly powered by WordPress” footer, though. Just add this CSS rule to your custom CSS:

    .site-info {
       display: none;
    }

    Yes it’s including the stylesheets…

    Your child theme stylesheet looks OK, so hard to say why your header image wouldn’t appear. Are there any other files that you copied over/created in your child theme, like a copy of your header.php file?
