Child theme not showing up

  • I’m trying to create a child theme for Simplr and it’s not showing up in Appearance. I’m guessing that maybe the name is written wrong. I wrote:
    “Template: Simplr”
    but maybe it should be “simplr” or “Simplr 4.6.1″…?

    Or, that the template path is wrong. Should it be like this?

    @import url(“…/public_html/wp-content/themes/simplr/style.css”);

    I know that the path doesn’t have to start from http.://… but it doesn’t work when I don’t write the full url.

    Thanks for any help!

  • Check the theme’s proper name in its style.css file.

    As for the import, you should just be able to use @import url(../simplr/style.css);

    Thanks! But no change yet ?? when it works, should I see it in “available themes”?

    Yes – it will be displayed in a similar manner to a standard theme. Only the location description will be different. Check that you aren’t overlooking any broken theme messages at the bottom of the Themes page.
