Add my name to the list. I am VERY upset that this was promoted and basically the plugin is a complete and utter DUD. Sorry to be so blunt. But let me expand on my experience (Over 10 hours of trying)
Started by seeing the top man extolling the virtues of Create block theme. Did a bit of poking around on the YouTubes and came across this young lady showing just how it all works.
Turn on Local. Fresh site. Add Gutenberg. Add Create Block Theme. Just as the young lady does…..
Well I got no further than the Manage Theme Fonts. I get
Error adding ABeeZee font to Twenty Twenty-Three theme. WordPress lack permissions to write the font assets.
Oh let’s try creating a child theme. Ok. It saves a zip. Well let’s upload that zip. And more of the same.
Installing theme from uploaded file: 2023childtheme.zip
Unpacking the package…
The package could not be installed. PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT (-10) : Unable to find End of Central Dir Record signature
So I go down an endless rabbit hole trying to find how to fix these problems and many days and hours later….
I am here – Cracking the sads. The plugin is a complete dud. It won’t write a child theme properly according to the error message. And it has a whole bunch of problems with permissions. And that’s not just me saying it. For us that aren’t so technically inclined it’s incredibly frustrating. I have seen multiple people demonstrate “It just works like this”
and well it doesn’t.
