Thanks for the recommendation. I used the Orbisius plugin but I get the same result. None of the formatting gets brought over to my child theme.
I also noticed that when using the child theme, that the Theme Options page has no formatting like it does when I use the parent theme. This theme provides a nice interface for making changes to the theme settings but this is all lost when using the child theme. It seems as if the style settings are not saved in style.css but somewhere else.
Any other ideas? Thanks!
