    Just getting set up, created a child theme; however, it does not seem to communicate with parent theme, on sub domain. Remarked out all modifications in order to test. Must have something wrong with child syntax…

    
/*
Theme Name:   Twenty Twelve Child
Theme URI:    https://ex.cbd4health.com/twentytwelve-child/
Description:  Twenty Twelve Child Theme
Author:       Jacob Barnett  06/21/21
Template:     twentytwelve
Version:      1.0.0
Tags:         light, dark, two-columns, right-sidebar, responsive-layout, accessibility-ready
Text Domain:  twentytwelve-child

*/

@import url("../twentytwelve/style.css");
/* =Imports styles from the parent theme
-------------------------------------------------------------- */

/* =Theme customization starts here

-------------------------------------------------------------- */

  • It would seem that you are not using the latest approach.
    You don’t need to use the import anymore:

    Also re: the code you posted – what file is this in?

    You can download a pre-build from here as well:

    Ther’es no need to “tell” the child where the parent is – WordPress does this for you.

    Thank you for your reply and recommendation.

    I amended the ‘style.css’ file, as per your recommendation (below) located:
    /ex.cbd4health.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/twentytwelve-child/

    
/*

author: ex.cbd4health.com

description: twenty twelve wordpress child theme.
template: twentytwelve
text domain: twentytwelve-child
*/

/* =Theme customization starts here

-------------------------------------------------------------- */
@font-face{
    font-family: "BD SantaMonica";
    src: url('fonts/bdsanta.ttf');
}

    However, the wp site still is not working properly as the header image is not showing up.

    It seems there is still something I’m overlooking in style.css.

    Could this problem be caused by the fact the WP install is in a sub domain?
