    Do NOT copy the theme’s files over to your child theme. That only causes problems, as you have seen.

    Your child theme functions file should look like this:

    <?php
    

    
// Insert custom functions here
    

    
?>

    except you would delete // Insert custom functions here and replace it with whatever function you have on hand.

    Have you looked at my site?

    How do I fix the menu bar?

    FYI the code required to change the language works great.

    Now to fix the menu bar and centering of the image on the page would be nice.

    Any advances to resolve the format of my website i.e. width of nav bar, location of sidebar and content.

    Your child theme stylesheet is missing. (It returns a 404.)

    I have the following code in my graphene-child directory style.css.

    /*

    Theme Name: Graphene Child

    Theme URI: http://share-memories.com/graphene-theme

    Description: Child theme for the Graphene theme

    Author: Your name here

    Author URI: http://share-memories.com/about/

    Template: graphene

    Version: 1.0

    */

    @import url(“../graphene/style.css”);

    /* Your modification goes here */

    It doesn’t matter what you have in that file if the file isn’t in the child theme directory. Where is your child theme stylesheet? It’s not in the child theme folder, and the child-theme folder doesn’t seem to be in the themes folder.

    Your Graphene child folder should be in your themes folder, right next to the original Graphene folder. This is what it looks like for me in localhost:

    I’ve highlighted the three child themes I’ve created.

    Look at the link I gave you above. It tells you the exact path that your child theme folder should be in:

    >>share-memories.com >> wp-content >> themes >>

    You should only have two files in your child theme folder:

    style.css

    functions.php
