css not working on child 2011 theme

  • I’m going nuts. I was working on some changes to the 2011 theme. I was lazy sand editing the theme’s css. (I know, I know). I did *something* and things went south. So I changed themes, deleted 2011, re-installed 2011, and created a child theme like I should have done in the first place.

    Now, css changes aren’t working. They don’t work if I edit the child css. They don’t work if I edit the parent css. I tried adding a function to enqueue the child css, but that locked everything up.

    For now, I’m trying to change the color of the menu and footer. My css is:

    ‘#site-generator {
    background: ##2f5597;
    color: #ddd;
    }

    #access {
    background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #2f5597;
    }’

    That worked fine when I was editing the 2011 theme. I also changed the child footer.php, and that is working correctly.

    I can’t see what I’m doing wrong, and all my experiments are not working. <ctl>-<F5> doesn’t help. What do I do now?

    OK – I was nuts. It’s still not working, and I still don’t know what to do, but at least it makes a little sense.

    Edits to the parent 2011 css sheet work. Additions to the child css don’t work. So it looks like the child css isn’t being loaded. I copied the function to enqueue the child css from the codex onto the child functions. The site hangs and does nothing. To get out, I have to change the name of the child theme folder using ftp. Then put everything back without the extra function.
