Theme Child white screen admin
« on: July 11, 2016, 07:48:52 pm »
Hi everyone,

I been trying to create a theme child, but when I go to activate the theme child the osclass admin goes completely white.  Just wondering what could be happening.

This are the instructions I been following, your help will be appreciate.



How to setup child theme:

    Create an folder in oc-content/themes/yourtheme_child (NOTE: will not work with dash -) with permission (755)
    Name the folder yourtheme_child (mcfly_child)
    In yourtheme_child folder create an index.php (NOTE: the files in this folder should have permission (644)
    In the Index.php add for example:
    <?php

    /*
    Theme Name: yourtheme_child
    Description: Your theme child
    Version: 1.0
    Author: you
    Author URI: http://yousite.com
    Parent Theme: yourtheme
    */
    ?>

    NOTE: Parent Theme: should be named after the theme you want to have a child of.
    Copy (functions.php) from oc-content/themes/yourtheme and add to oc-content/themes/yourtheme_child folder
    Go to your admin dashboard -> appearance and activate the yourtheme_child
    DONE.
    copy screenshot to yourtheme_child folder.
