I've been toiling, probably way too long, with a simple Child Theme for a version of Fukasawa. I first tried [The Codex][1], which seemed pretty darn simple to follow (although I've since read much that says "disregard codex"). I got as far as seeing that "Themes" recognizes my child theme (fukasawa-child) for Preview/Activation. But, when it comes to "Enqueuing", I fall short, and "no style at all" is a result. My site looks like a bare unordered list. I think I'm overanalyzing, but I have more questions than I can find the answers to (which is why I think I'm overanalyzing): /* Theme Name: Fukasawa Child Theme Theme URI: my_website_url/fukasawa-child/ /* Q1 - should this uri actually be 'my_website/wp-content/themes/fukasawa-child'??? */ Description: child theme for Fukasawa Author: my name (veeps) Author URI: my_uri.com /* /Q2 - can I do this, as the customizer? Template: fukasawa //codex says to leave just like parent Version: 1.05 */ Q3 - Is the above (css opening information) referenced by my functions.php later? NEXT: function theme_enqueue_styles() { $parent_style = 'parent-style'; // Q4 - should 'parent-style' be replaced by 'fukasawa', or is that part of some pre-defined wp_universal_variable? wp_enqueue_style( $parent_style, get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' ); wp_enqueue_style( 'child-style', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/style.css', array( $parent_style ) ); } add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'theme_enqueue_styles' ); if "get_template_directory_uri()" is referenced AND identical for both parent & child, and if I've been instructed (by codex) to leave them the same as original (i.e. file named style.css and 'fukasawa' as theme...probably to make life easier for newbies not unlike myself), then how does the php know where to look for parent vs. child?
