• I have WPFolio running and the php files in the child theme work as expected, but it’s still only using the parent style.css. Having read around as much as I can I’m presuming it has something to do with the header.php calling the stylesheet with this line:

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url'); ?>" type="text/css" media="screen" />

    And that’s where my abilities start to get flakey. This looks to me like it shouldn’t pose this particular problem, but no matter what I do, the activated child theme will only reference the parent style.css.

  • @chip: WPFolio trac ticket, thanks.

    I’ve looked into this a bit and everything seems okay in header.php – Superfish and a few other stylesheets are called, then ‘stylesheet_url’ and finally the theme options. Any other place to check?

    And @phybron: looks like you’re using a pretty old version of WPFolio, maybe that was the issue. You can download the latest version from GitHub.

    Oh yes… I’m a couple of version behind. Weird that it’s not up-to-date on WordPress. Oh well. It works now, so I’ll update when I have time to deal with changes.
