• No matter what I do, even activating the simplest child themes. Nothing works with this theme.

    Whenever a child theme is activated my dashboard (wp-admin) is broken and wordpress presents a weird message.

    I really like this theme, but it’s broken if it doesn’t work with child themes. I have never come across a theme in my life that doesn’t work with a child theme.

  • Hello @webbva,

    This issue is occurs because class-demo.php & demo.php files not found in child theme. To solve this copy inc folder from parent theme to child theme. class-demo.php & demo.php files located into inc/demo directory, so you need only demo directory in inc directory.

    Hope this will helps you.

    Thanks.

    Hello
    I’m using this thema and I’m having problems with child theme.
    I tried with the 2 ways:

    @import url (“../ bootstrap-blog / style.css”);

    in the style.css file in the bootstrap-blog-child folder

    or inserting in the functions.php file present in the bootstrap-blog-child folder:

    <? Php

    add_action (‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘enqueue_parent_theme_style’);

    function enqueue_parent_theme_style () {
    wp_enqueue_style (‘parent-style’, get_template_directory_uri (). ‘/style.css’);
    }

    the child thema is activated but any rule I copy in the style.css has no effect.

    Is this theme compatible with the child-theme?
    Do you have any suggestions?

    I have always used the child-theme to modify the themes and not lose the customizations with the updates.

    Thanks again
    Max

    Hello.

    Confronted to the same issue, I applied your advice – I transfered the whole inc file into my Bootstrap blog child theme.
    It works fine. I can see all elements of the site, and not a white page any more. Thank you.

    Now, you said “class-demo.php & demo.php files located into inc/demo directory, so you need only demo directory in inc directory”.
    Then should I keep as well or delete all the others files excepted the demo directory file (in the inc file of my child theme)?

    Thank you for your answer. I hope it will be ok as I like this theme design and do want to use it. ??

    By the way:
    – the parent theme shows 9 errors to be corrected. I did it for few (just two points missing (color#fff; > color:#fff).
    But in lines about grid, it said that #2fr is not correct (line 985 for exemple). I suppose you will change this for the next upload. ??

    Best wishes
    Anne
