    Thanks for your support, and prompt reply to my problem.

    I am using an Abyss Web Server ‘Local Host’ account as a test bench for evaluating modifications for a live website, using a child Mystile theme, and WooCommerce.
    I think that using my local host is the cause of my problem. From what I have found on your great plugin, I think this makes product reviews work on woocommerce, for guest purchases. I will try the plugin on my daughter’s live web site, and submit a review latter, thank you.

    I also have had a problem having created a mystile-child theme, using the WordPress codex. The mystile-child theme activates no problem, but when you go to the website, its layout does not resemble that using the Mystile parent theme. I tried deleting the function.php file, which contained the equeue php code, leaving just the style.css file with the required header information, which should have produced a website exactly like the parent Mystile, but it didn’t, still all messed up. It is safe to say that the problem is not due to using ‘enqueue’ method, which is preferred over ‘@import’.
    The solution is simple :-
    In WordPress website Dashboard select Mystile-Child Theme – Settings
    Under General Settings
    The Theme Stylesheet is set to ‘default’
    change this to any colour, i.e. red.css
    Do not forget to select ‘Save Changes’ at the bottom of the page.
    Now have a look at your website – It worked for me, just like the original Mystile parent.
    I can’t claim I found this fix myself, but it as taken me many hours of reading blogs to find a solution.
    The Mystile theme from WooCommerce is a great theme, and free, Thank You, but comes with no support. I would be interested if any one knows why altering a default setting – for a colour as such an impact on the child theme, which contains no changes to the parent. Note: the ‘default.css’ file contains no code, but the colour.css files do.
