child theme issue

  • hi

    im having a real problem getting my child theme to work!

    it displays correctly in the wordpress editor but any coding i place in it does not work.

    eg. i would change the font size in the parent theme and that would work, and then i use exactly the same code and try in my child theme and dont get the same response.

    here is my child theme

    /*
    Theme Name: sliding-door-child
    Theme URI: https://calligraphycompany.com
    Description: Child Theme for sliding door
    Author: Angelo
    Author URI: https://calligraphycompany.com
    Template: sliding-door
    Version: 0.1
    */

    @import url(“../sliding-door/style.css”);

    is there something wrong here?
    thanks in advance

  • is your parent theme also using @import? If so that might be your issue. Make it easy on yourself and just copy and paste the parent theme styles in your css file instead of importing it. Cause technically if you are using a child theme it’s cause you want the fucntionality not the look and feel.
