Child theme problems

    I have copied the Hueman child theme from GitHub, uploaded it to my site and activated it.

    The site looks fine. Trouble is, no matter what changes I make to the stylesheet, nothing changes on the site.

    I only want to do simple things like changing the colour of the nav bar, removing the acres of padding on the widgetized footer and changing the colour of the footer.

    Edit: I’ve got around this by using a Custom CSS plugin instead of a child theme, but that’s not really a solution if I discover I also need to add/remove functions.

    Mike, I have several websites and I can only have my avatar pointing to one, so I chose my main site. I didn’t realise I was supposed to change it every time I had a question about a different site.

    The missing bracket is on my main site, not on the Hueman site I’m asking about (http://planbmaintenance.net), so it’s not the “main issue”.

    Ideally, the site that your avatar points to would be your personal site, and when you have questions about a different site, you can just put the link in the post itself.

    As for your main issue, can you be more specific about what’s not working, including what CSS rules you have already tried? As far as I can see, your child theme is set up correctly and its stylesheet is being read.
