that’s excellent, thanks for doing that

how can i find out if a theme doesn’t support child theme?

that’s ok, thanks for all your help, I would never have been able to find that out, really appreciate it, you saved me a lot of work

I’m trying to change the header, so that it is bigger, 150 px rather than 80px, and here is the code I’ve added to the style.css file

#site-heading {
min-height:100px;
padding:20px 30px 0 30px;
margin-bottom:10px;
}

I dont know why it is still showing the style.css for the parent theme, I’ve done everything right it seems, yet the site is still showing the parent

I’m trying to create a child theme so I can change css elements without future updates erasing what I’m doing. Have I missed something in the process?

ya, in the word press dashboard it says “child theme for living journal theme” and the only file that is available in the editor is the style.css file that is in the child theme directory

that isn’t the homepage because still has the holding page information on it, I hope this can help

so i create a new style.css file? and when it says create a new directory in wp-content/themes, does that just mean I create a new folder?

well what I did was simply create a new folder in the same folder as the parent theme and called it child theme and then copied the style.css file over, should I have done that differently?

Ya I have, I make the changes in the style.css file in the editor, but when I go to the site, it isn’t showing any changes

here’s one of the pages, https://aquatell.co.za/dosing-pumps-2, the main domain still has the original holding page content, I followed a video online on how to set up a child theme, but ya, not working, any help would be greatly appreciated
