Any customization could be applied through a child theme without affecting the functionality of the parent theme <span id=\"19171322-dc09-4e64-869c-98e124a30dd0\" data-items=\"[&quot;632524707&quot;]\" class=\"abt-citation\" contenteditable=\"false\">\u200b[1]\u200b<\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many comprehensive tutorials are out there, thus creating a WordPress child theme is an easy task. However, in some cases, it is frustrating if any issues occur just because of trivial matters. Here, we will discuss several common issues in creating a WordPress child theme, and how to fix them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><em><strong>Before trying the solution, make sure that your WordPress version is up to date<\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A parent theme is required<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The child theme only adds customization to the parent theme. Thus, <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">the parent theme must remain installed and can be left inactive<\/span>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Child theme can&#8217;t detect its parent<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In some cases, even though the parent theme is installed, a child theme is considered a broken theme, as illustrated in Fig. 1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"748\" height=\"568\" src=\"https:\/\/www.indowhiz.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/GeneratePress-parent-theme-is-missing.jpg\" alt=\"GeneratePress child theme can't detect its parent\" class=\"wp-image-6173\"\/><figcaption>Fig. 1. GeneratePress child theme can&#8217;t detect its parent<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The typical issue would be:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code lang=\"markdown\" class=\"language-markdown\">The parent theme is missing. Please install the \"ThemeName\" parent theme.<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Apparently, WordPress looks at the parent-theme directory name as a reference, and is case-sensitive <span id=\"98a34efe-b3c3-468d-9906-ee0f6fe777f1\" data-items=\"[&quot;632524707&quot;]\" class=\"abt-citation\" contenteditable=\"false\">\u200b[1]\u200b<\/span>. For example, the <a href=\"https:\/\/generatepress.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GeneratePress<\/a> directory name is &#8220;generatepress&#8221;, which uses lowercase, as illustrated in Fig. 2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"975\" height=\"524\" src=\"https:\/\/www.indowhiz.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/WordPress-Theme-Folder-List.jpg\" alt=\"WordPress themes folder\" class=\"wp-image-6162\"\/><figcaption>Fig. 2. WordPress themes folder<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, if you encounter this issue, you may want to prior check the directory name of the parent theme.  Then, in the <code>style.css<\/code> of a child theme, the <code>Template<\/code> declarations should refer to the directory name of the parent theme. For example, the <code>style.css<\/code> of the GeneratePress child theme should be as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre title=\"style.css\" class=\"wp-block-code\"><code lang=\"markup\" class=\"language-markup line-numbers\">\/*\nTemplate: generatepress\nTheme Name: GeneratePress Child\nDescription: GeneratePress Child Theme\n*\/<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">References<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<section aria-label=\"Bibliography\" class=\"wp-block-abt-bibliography abt-bibliography\" role=\"region\"><ol class=\"abt-bibliography__body\" data-maxoffset=\"3\" data-linespacing=\"1\" data-second-field-align=\"flush\"><li id=\"632524707\">  <div class=\"csl-entry\">\n    <div class=\"csl-left-margin\">[1]<\/div><div class=\"csl-right-inline\">WordPress.org, \u201cChild Themes,\u201d <i>WordPress: Developer Resources<\/i>. <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/developer.wordpress.org\/themes\/advanced-topics\/child-themes\/\">https:\/\/developer.wordpress.org\/themes\/advanced-topics\/child-themes\/<\/a> (accessed Sep. 17, 2022).<\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/li><\/ol><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since theme updates might remove any customization, creating a child theme could prevent it.
