Hi, Tarrence.
Sure, I can help. What is your question?

“anyone using a child theme”
I do.

“is there another file?”
Where?

Looks like it will be easier for me to share a link and my default child theme template.

what files did you have to copy into child theme?

Dima Stefantsov commented December 4, 2015

Was you unable to download and open an archive? Did you read the link I gave you?
Both sources explicitly answer your question.

thanks i copied the functions file… but much of my site is missing (menus gone, logo gone, featured image gone, colors changed)

I see you have “@import url(“../askbug/style.css”);” in your child theme css. This is not required. Parent theme CSS is ALREADY included by default, automatically. Maybe this is the reason of your bugs.

Just change one line from my sources, the one with “!!!CHANGEME!!!”, put my folder in your /themes/, activate this child theme. Everything should stay as it was, it should all be working fine.

Once you achieve that, you move onward from there.
