  • Are you using a child theme? Try adding this to style.css:
    @import url('../WPFolio/css/ie-sucks.css');

    Where WPFolio/ is the name of your parent directory.

    no, not using a child theme yet. I’ve just realised that I should be last night and reading up now on how to set that up (I’m very new to all this).

    But thanks, I assume I should sort this child theme out first before doing the above?

    Yes, definitely use a child theme instead of changing the theme’s core files, otherwise your changes will be overwritten when you update the theme.

    ok, thanks so much for your help! Getting my head around child themes now and will do what you have suggested when I get there : )

    @clairbee:
    Check into @slambert’s suggestion – looks more promising than the @import url idea, but def. keep going on a child theme!

    Yay! I’ve at last got my childtheme happening, I used
    @import url(‘../WPFolio/css/ie-sucks.css’); in the childtheme style sheet which seems to have fixed the menu problem!

    I did try slamberts suggestion but I couldn’t quite work out where to put the z-index info. I know the instructions seem pretty clear but I spent quite a while and nothing I did seemed to make it work so I was probably putting it in the wrong place.

    Just one more question in my childtheme style sheet? do I need to keep the
    @import url(“../wpfolio/style.css”);

    as well as
    @import url(‘../WPFolio/css/ie-sucks.css’);

    at the moment I have both

    Yep, you definitely need @import url("../wpfolio/style.css"); but shouldn’t need @import url("../wpfolio/css/ie-sucks.css");. Now that you have your child theme up and running, try deleting that line and all should be okay, if it’s not, doesn’t hurt to leave it there.
