Welp… I’m following this thread because of the previous issues with this same file.
We had been doing good until two days ago when Wordfence picked up a “file change”. Just to be safe, I restored the previous version and downloaded a copy of the file for review.

I got it to work meow. ??

I made a child theme of the twentytwelve theme that worked, and changed one thing at a time while checking to see if it was broken.

For whatever reason, you can point it out to me if you like… what I had did not work. but this does.

/*
Theme Name:     Albeco Child
Theme URI:      https://readyshoppingcart.com/
Description:    Child theme for the albeco
Author:         MyName
Author URI:     https://mysite.com
Template:       albecocommerce
Version:        0.1.0
*/

/* Imports all styles from the Twenty Twelve stylesheet */
@import url('../albecocommerce/style.css');

Thank you for everyone who responded! I promise when I’m working from home I will spend some time on here and try to answer other people’s questions in thanks.

Yes. This is my file structure.

../albecocommerce/style.css
../albecocommerce-child/style.css

I actually emailed the people that put out this theme and recieved an email very quickly. Here is their response.

Hello.
No, we do not block any of such actions – create it as many as you want.

Regards,
Alexey.

The website is jewelsmith.net, but I have a “coming soon” plugin activated so you can’t see the actual page.

I’m working with this theme because I want to set up a Shopping cart for a client.
I decided to use Ready! ecommerce with their free theme Albeco.

I downloaded the theme directly from
https://readyshoppingcart.com/
their website.

I’m wondering if they have set up the theme so you can’t create a child theme (if that’s possible?)

*shrug*

I. Am. Frustrated.

When I look in the Parent theme comments there’s no Template name, is that normal? Is the Theme name different from the Template name?
I swear I have read all the documents, and watched tutorials and articles, but I’m still having trouble with this. No fun. ??

This is the Parent theme comments

/*
Theme name: AlbecoCommerce
Author: Ready! Shopping cart
Author URI: https://readyshoppingcart.com/
Description: This is amazing theme for you to start commerce! This theme working ONLY with <a href="https://readyshoppingcart.com/order">Ready! Shopping cart</a> plugin!
Version: 1.0
*/

This is what I have that doesn’t work.

/*
Theme name: AlbecoCommerce Child
Template: albecocommerce
*/

The albecocommerce is the actual name of the parent theme folder

Thank you for your quick reply! ??

I am using FTP to just upload this file directly, then checking in the “Manage Themes” area of the dashboard to see if it’s working.

I’ve changed the file to only have those two things like you said… And I’m still getting the error message….

Is there a way to confirm the spelling and case of the Template theme? I assumed it was the name of the original theme folder, is this right?
