the child theme has a blank functions.php when i originally followed another post on how to do this there was no mention of a need for additn anything to the functions file.

virtue does support child themes and my other modifications work (they have been disabled for troubleshooting this issue at this time)

i have validated the css code using this validator i found (The W3C CSS Validation Service) and it passed.

google doesnt have my fonts but worth a try to see if i can get one to work for troubleshooting … ill do that and post back tomorrow.

as for the enqueing ive read more but i am unsure as to what function i need to create?

I did do some more digging and i think the default style.css file is being called before my child one as the source code suggests but i dont know where/why this is occuring?

Yes i understand that and that is the problem! I took that from the “view source code” when reviewing my live site, from what i can tell the is the defaulted selection for the virtue theme.

There are no plugins related to fonts installed.

So again why is the child theme not overriding? It doesn’t make sense

Neo appreciate your help. Ive gone through it again and removed 1 “,” and changed the “,” at the end of each line to “;” so it is now like this and still doesnt work. I copied the code from wordpad this time to ensure no formatting was missed…. However when i look my home page and check the source code i still see the default code displayed (see second snip)

Ok i modified that too so my code is as follows with din light followed by san francisco in that order (2 added fonts for testing), but i still do not see this being called?

Thanks Neo,
I just tried changing the paths of the font files to the full http name and still no luck.

Everything in the pagelines link is exactly what i have done. Maybe you can take a look at https://www.davidwlane.ca ? when i check the page source line 116 is calling the “Virtue” theme defaults still ?

Thanks for your guidance David. Just installed a few themes and plugins to test all is working!!!!!!!
So happy.

SOLVED!
Ok i gave full access to the root wordpress directory and all sub objects to all users, not just ISUSR_SERVER , and then it works!

Ok now that all of that is running when i tried to do udpates i am presented with a screen as follows:

Connection Information

To perform the requested action, WordPress needs to access your web server. Please enter your FTP credentials to proceed. If you do not remember your credentials, you should contact your web host.

Hostname
https://www.lanefamilycanada.ca/blog
FTP Username

FTP Password

This password will not be stored on the server.
Connection Type
FTP FTPS (SSL)

Since I am hosting this myself why is this asking for FTP info?

Good nights sleep can do wonders…..
Update:
I attempted to do this without the use of the addins and unistalled them and worked from scratch.

So after much finagling to get a more recent version of PHP on the server, i was able to successfully upgrade to 5.5.45 (last version supported for Windows server 2003 as per PHP).

1.I started with searching and deleting all php.ini or variants on my pc.
2. Reinstalled Fast CGI from the msi file not the web extension installer

It the followed the steps again on this page.

Note: This step 3 was SUPER important, i had only been starting and stopping the website not the application pool.

3. After you save the changes to the fcgiext.ini file, restart the application pool that is associated with the Web site that hosts your PHP applications.

Once this was all complete, i had to make one small change to my phpinfo test page and that was to add the time zone, otherwise i got an error.

<html>
<head>
<title>PHP Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php echo ‘<p>Windows Home Server V1 PHP5.4.45 Info Test Page</p>’; ?>
<?php date_default_timezone_set(‘Africa/Lagos’)?>
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
</body>
</html>

Test page successful, confirming 5.4.45 running. ??

I uninstalled the MY SQL and WordPress addins and installed the MySQL 5 package, then i replaced the files in the /pma folder under wwwroot with the newest PHPmy admin files

https://files.phpmyadmin.net/phpMyAdmin/4.4.15.2/phpMyAdmin-4.4.15.2-english.zip

I restarted the application pool, website and then Restarted IIS from the command prompt.

Now i have a fully upto date (last version supported at least) version of PHP,MYSQL, PHP MY Admin, and wordpress 4.4

Thats the thing. I am the host ??

Thanks David, i dont see much for suggestions on that page (already cleared cache cookies, tried different browsers and pcs) but i do see there is a confirmed bug in 4.4 by the sounds it forplugins and themese.

i did the original install and upgrade from within my control panel dec 20/21 i think, so it would have upgraded to 4.4 then unless 4.4 was released after that?

Do you think there is something interfering with the php on my server somehow? When i did this two weeks ago i originally installed php/mysq separately, but when i coudlnt get php to work i used the addin for WHS. After rebuilding by server i only used the addin?

Here is my current php.ini file if needed. I’m really confused why this would work last week and now after a clean server install and clean install of WP it isnt? Last week i was able to do everything through the control panel no problem including the upgrade to 4.4……..

[Large code excerpt removed by moderator per forum rules. Please use Pastebin for all large code excerpts. It works better anyway.]

so i googled that error and that let me to also check my php.ini file I could not see

extension=php_curl.dll

so i added that and restarted the site in IIS still no change.

No dice with the clean install ??

Now i followed that page you sent to ensure i was doing it correctly but it was a little confusing so here is what i did differently…
-Steps 4-7 i just overwrote the existing files as it was a clean install and i have root access as the server is mine so no FTP required.
-.maintenance file did not exist.

Once that was done the upgrade to 4.4 looked successful and i successfully updated the installation.
However, i tried to update the existing theme and this is what i got:
