    I am trying to create a Child theme of Oria following the guides at www.ads-software.com, but no matter what I do it only result in a message saying the Child theme is broken. Clearly I am missing something but I can’t figure out what. Does anyone know where I can find a ready made Child theme, or can publish the coding for a working function.php and styles.css?

  • You don’t even need a function.php.
    Just copy the following code in the style.css of your child theme folder and change the parts including ‘your name’.

    /*
 Theme Name:   Your Name
 Theme URI:    https://yourname.de
 Description:  Oria Child Theme
 Author:       Your Name
 Author URI:   https://yourname.de
 Template:     oria
 Version:      1.0
*/
@import url('../oria/style.css');

    Let me know if it works.

    That error is related to the comments used at the top of your Child Theme style.css file.
