    Hello,

    I’m trying to create a child theme according to the video tutorial & the wordpress codex, but something seems to go wrong. The child theme does not show up in my Themes tab.

    I have tried creating a child for the standard theme “twentyfourteen” with the same procedure. For that theme, a child theme does appear in the Themes tab. So it’s a specific problem I have for the enfold theme.

    What could the reason be?

    Many thanks for the support
    Joris

    Hi jorisvo!

    Thank you for using Enfold.

    What is the folder name of the parent theme? Please download the child theme folder here: http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/using-a-child-theme/

    Make sure that the parent theme folder name is “enfold”.

    Regards,
    Ismael

    OK, I found the reason why it’s not working.
    Initially, I put the folder enfold in wp-content/themes
    But this folder has 2 subfolders: enfold and _MACOSX
    Apparently this subfolder enfold should be put under wp-content/themes, not the parent folder
    Maybe it’s better to rename the parent folder to avoid further confusion…
    Thanks,
    Joris
