Hello,

“A child theme inherits the look and feel of the parent theme and all of its functions, but can be used to make modifications to any part of the theme.”

You can only activate one theme at a time. The child and parent theme can not be activated at the same time. Not a huge problem because the child theme “inherits” the UI and functions of the parent. That said, I should be able to make changes on the child theme and see them on the website.

Problem: When I attempt to make changes to the colors, width of the headers, alignment, etc. in the child theme they don’t show on the website. No changes made on the child theme change the website. I shouldn’t have to update the parent AND the child theme for the changes to be reflected. When the parent theme is updated, that would erase all the changes anyway. The use of the child theme doesn’t seem to be developed correctly, per best practice.
