DUDE!!!

That’s it. (I had to pinch myself to make sure I wasn’t imagining stuff.)

Or rather, a combination of the bunch of things you brought up:

• Blast the child theme’s functions.php
• Fix the child theme’s missing template name
• Load an unrelated theme and then return to the desired one

I managed to get it to work on the newly created dev site which will lurk in the background for some time still, but it’s nice to know some of these damned demons have been sent away.

I’ve seen that codex page you linked to but as I said, I’m sort of out of the WP loop and it’s hard to know what to prioritize when looking at all these things at once.

Thanks so much.

I did notice that and made the shift prior to the last post. Still not working right. Same error notice.

I even tried the same changes at my new installation, with none of the old ghosts lingering. Still no luck.

Could we be barking up the wrong tree?

Hmm… I did both. The stylesheet editor accepted the adjustment. I ditched the functions.php. Still no change.

Doesn’t look like it did any harm though.

I just did a secondary, parallel installation of WP in a dev folder. Installed the Twenty Eleven and the Accessible Child too. Same error, out of the box with no other complicating settings or data.

??

Hi Joe. Thanks for replying.

To be sure, I had Twenty Eleven there but just deleted and reinstalled it anew.

Because I am experimenting with this stuff, I also have tried a combination of Twenty Ten Five (html5) and a child, Twenty Ten Five Accessible, which I guess relate in the same way.

Everything is wonky on this site. Either it’s gonna be major surgery or replacement and manual copying and reposting just to be certain any of us managing it now would be fully aware of what is installed and how things are done. But since I am a volunteer with limited permission to do things and new at the requirements of accessibility, I can’t just do it my way.

I’m finding I need to do some work in WP after leaving it for a few years. Could use some extra brainpower, particularly in the area of web accessibility.

I’m in Escondido.
