This was super helpful. I had created a css file and everything looked correct, but for some reason it wasn't working. But when I took the file from github and edited it, things just started working correctly. Not sure what the problem was, but now it works so thanks for making this!
Thank you! I'm just getting everything started now (my YT, website, etc.) so hang in there, I have some great stuff planned! Tons of things, not just Elementor!
Very helpful. Thank You so much! I used to do all my websites in DreamWeaver, so I am pretty good with css. Looking forward to creating my own child themes so I can get my WordPress sites to look the way I would like them to look. 🥰
Thanks for watching! I have lots of stuff in the works, including my website which will have written tutorials and code snippets. Also new videos planned.
Thanks for your tutorial. It's very helpful. However, the image I added for my screenshot in my folder is not displaying for my child theme. Any idea why this could be happening? And what should we do if the CSS theme code you copied from the parent theme isn't there to begin with?
That was super helpful, many thanks! I was hoping to get the option of having the Theme Editor available by installing that child theme but it didn't turn out. I need to add some code snippet and can't do it. Any idea why I don't have the option to go into the theme editor? Really need that!
Glad it was helpful! Are you talking about the Theme Editor option under Appearance? If so my first guess would be a security plugin. Some security plugins will remove that for well....security! Some hosting will disable that too. If not your security plugin, check your wp-config.php file for this line define( 'DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT', true ); as some hosts will add that. With that said, I don't suggest editing code there. An (S)FTP program will be what you want. I have another video that covers that here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-C_s3FEWSRG0.html
@@YouCanCodeIt thanks for your super quick reply! Yes, the Theme Editor under Appearance is what I meant. It was indeed as you said it, the plugin iThemes Security was in my way. Unfortunately I couldn't change and configuration so that I could retrieve this option, so I had to deactivate it for a while. That was the easiest way to handle that.
