    I have a child theme based on WordPress 2010. I would like to make my site responsive (I’ve been told not having a responsive site will affect my SEO). Is there a way to convert my child theme into a responsive theme? If that is not possible, how do I edit my css file to make it responsive? The code example I saw online showed to set the max-width to x then add width : percentage under that. When I enter that code I get a rbrace error message. Thanks in advance for the help, Eric.

    my site address is https://www.ejflooring.com

    When I enter that code I get a rbrace error message.

    Where did you enter it and what is the full error?

    On line 156 of Style.css.

    154 #header_top_contact_info{
    155 max-width:350px;
    156 width : 100%
    157 position:relative;
    158 left:520px;
    159 top:-90px;
    160 font-size:15px;
    161 color:#e5a612;
    162 font-weight:bold;
    163 }

    The error message is on lines 156 and 157. Warning on 156 says expected end of value instead “position”
    157 says expected rbrace at line 157, col 10.

    Is there a way to copy my child theme into a responsive theme?

    You’re missing a semicolon on line 156, do you see?

    Well CSS is dependent on HTML, so I doubt your Child Theme CSS will work on another theme.

    ok, I think that solved it. My header has several sections to adjust, just scared of doing it on my own. I will make sure to keep backup of the file handy so I don’t mess up too bad. Thanks again Eric
