ay? its coming up on past as twenty-fourtenn-child – weird as it is third-style-child – ill recheck it – ok all sorted as should be – I think. Not posted any addition codes yet though…

This is all I have in the file
/*
Theme Name: Third Style Child
Theme URI: https://example.com/twenty-fourteen-child/
Description: Child Theme for Third Style
Author: Carol Long Beacon
Author URI: https://example.com
Template: third-style
Version: 1.0.0
*/

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

I then added your suggested code and it went mental!

yes – back on active child theme

parent theme is Third Style and I set child theme as third-style-child. Not sure what you referring to here.. “style.css” then copy and paste the header for the file that I gave above.

ok – (gulp!) managed to set up another child theme2 and deleted old one. So site back up on the child theme – but I haven’t added any coding to style.css – scared now!

ok – well its not good – I have now reverted back to parent theme as I cannot have the website looking like that – perhaps I should delete that child theme and start afresh with another one?

I ask about the cpanel file manager as I have never used it before to edit themes – always used ash board!

I must have done something really bad!

I went to child theme folder through c panel and selected the style.css – was that right?

I think I may have pasted into the wrong edit – I selected edit and pasted and saved too quickly – now I see there is a code edit too!! Oh no – now how to I revert this?

ooopppsss… BIG time – did that – and the site has gone completely bizarre! Quickly tried to delete it and no change – take a quick look!!

respectyoda Hi ! Just thought I’d say that as the codes didn’t work I decided to investigate more thoroughly the Child Theme! All up and running as child theme now – but alas codes still not working. Is there somewhere you can direct me to find out how to do this and also to change the tab colours and texts along with foot colour changes please? Also want to say thank you for your help and thank you for suggestion for the child theme – as I found time today I was better able to understand just how important it is!!

uummm – unfortunately not ?? Unless of course it takse a little while to code? If you do have a chance perhaps you can look at the site – and you will see what I mean – all links are underlined (which I don’t want) and I would like to just change the colour – but maybe I should just keep it as it is – probably works fine for everyone anyway.

ah! they hadn’t shown up before I replied to you. Brilliant – thanks. Im going to ry them now.

You really are being very patient with me – and thank you – but I can’t go there! I am not good at this at all and it is all way to far out for me to deal with. I haven’t had a problem with the Custom CSS before today – and it was running smoothly – until I decided to change something and I can’t remember how I set it up to start with! I really don’t want to start another theme and write complete codes for it.

Nope – can’t go there – far too much for me to handle!! I just need help with what I should have in my customer css. I have customer css as a plugin and it was working fine – but now because I twiddled with it – I’m lost and no I didn’t copy it first! Simply need to know how to write the codes for internal links on websites to hover and no decoration. Anyone help me?

Its frightening me! I already have the site up and running – how do I change it to a child theme? Don’t wanna of there!
