We can’t view the first link because we would have to be logged in. What did you include in your child theme? You created a new style.css file, I assume. Does it have any CSS in it? Did you create a functions.php file like it says in the instructions for a child theme? You should go ahead and activate it to see how it looks. You can always switch back to the parent theme.
And is the X theme the actual name of the theme? Did you get the theme from the WordPress Theme repository or is it a commercial theme? Many commercial themes make it very difficult to create a child theme.
Thank you for your response.
Yes. I have the new Word Press X Theme. I bought it so it must be “commercial”? It came with some free templates which were quite easy to set up. The X Theme site files are on another’s server who’s hosting me, so It’s very difficult to get to the actual style sheets. All the HTML files I open are labeled “Inactive”?
I’m using the Child Theme plugin, so not much is left up to me – I think I clicked all the right boxes and followed their directions well enough. I got it so I wouldn’t have to risk any errors on my own with the setup since it supposed to do it for you. And I’m a beginner.
Easier said than done….
Have you seen the info on the X theme site here?

That site is also where you should ask for additional help from the developer.
