  • It should be where it normally is on any theme. Under Appearance/Editor. It’s just a physically different file than your original themes. That way, when your original theme updates, these changes won’t be overwritten. 🙂

    Yes…that’s where is “should be” but did you see my screen shot?

    It’s not there.
    Did I do something wrong?

    this is what my style sheet says:
    /*
    Theme Name: WP-Forge Child
    Theme URI: http://example.com/wp-forge-child/
    Description: WP Forge Child Theme
    Author: me
    Author URI: http://my domain.com
    Template: wp-forge

    */

    ^^
    I guess to clarify I’m ACTUALLY talking about the appearance-customize section of the dashboard…not the appearance-editor.

    It does appear in the appearance-editor.
    With a big warning button to not edit it!

    I am not quit sure what you are looking for. The style sheet of any theme, whether parent (WP-Forge) or child theme (WP-Forge Child) is accessible via Appearance>Editor and I am not sure what you mean by “a big warning button to not edit it!”

    I have never seen anything like that with any theme. Could it be something from your hosting company? Do you have a screenshot of this button in the Appearance>Editor?

    The only time you will be able to add custom css via the customizer is if it has been coded into the theme and is actually part of the customizer. In the case of WP-Forge, this has not been added to the customizer as using the Appearance>Editor screen is sufficient. Or a user could employ the custom css option found within the Jetpack plugin.

    Whichever the case, you add custom css via the Appearance>Editor screen and you start adding your css below the top part of what you see in that screen, i.e:

    /*
    Theme Name: WP-Forge Child
    Theme URI: http://example.com/wp-forge-child/
    Description: WP Forge Child Theme
    Author: me
    Author URI: http://my domain.com
    Template: wp-forge
    Version: 1.0.0
    License: GNU General Public License v2 or later
    License URI: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.html
    Tags: light, dark, two-columns, right-sidebar, responsive-layout, accessibility-ready
    Text Domain: wp-forge-child
    */
    
    .somediv {
        color:#bf00c9;
    }

    Hope this helps you out and clears any confusion. As always, enjoy!
