Created quick child theme but plugin doesn't add options

After extensive testing, it looks like the issue is fairly isolated. Color customizations made while live-previewing a child theme of Twenty Fourteen for the first time (ie, right after it is installed, but not if you switch back and forth) do not generate the color css. But once a child theme is active, you should be able to make changes without issues.

Can you confirm that once the child theme is activated and you go back into the customizer, it works as expected?

I can confirm the opposite. On my site I have a child theme active and your plugin active and the the customizer only gives me two options. I have a local install of the twentyfourteen theme and your plugin works as expected when I don’t use the child theme. What I don’t know is if your plugin needs my child theme to have anything specific in the style.css to make it understand that I am running the correct theme?

I found the issue, the template name is case sensitive. Change
Template: Twentyfourteen
to
Template: twentyfourteen
in your style.css file. I’ll also make that check case-insensitive in the plugin, since WordPress must also treat that as case-insensitive if it’s working for you.

There must be more to this. I made the change in my style.css. Reloaded and I still only get two options. I even disabled and enabled the plugin just in case. Here is my style.css.

/*
Theme Name:     2014 Congress
Description:    Child theme for twentyfourteen theme
Template:       twentyfourteen
Version:        0.2.0
*/

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

I’m guessing that didn’t get updated in the database. You could try updating the template_name row in the wp_options table in your database, or you could just install the development version of Fourteen Colors, which has the case-insensitive fix, from here. That should fix it.

Thank you. You guessed correctly the database never updated. I updated it manually. I will just await for the approved plugin update. Thank you for building the plugin that will make my coworkers able to change colors as needed without lots of code. I appreciate it.
