Hi!
I just recently managed to create a child theme for Zerif Lite. You should create a style.css and a functions.php file like you have already done. After you’ve created those files you should paste the following code:
style.css
/*
Theme Name: Zerif Lite Child
Theme URI: https://themeisle.com/themes/zerif-lite/
Description: Zerif Lite Child Theme
Author: ThemeIsle
Author URI: https://themeisle.com
Template: zerif-lite
Version: 0.1
*/
@import url("../zerif-lite/style.css");
functions.php
<?php
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'theme_enqueue_styles' );
function theme_enqueue_styles() {
wp_enqueue_style( 'parent-style', get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' );
}
This is what has worked for me. Let me know if it solved your problem :).
