Hi,
So overnight my theme’s custom.css was wiped clean. The file still exists but there was nothing in it. I wanted to see if this has happened to anyone else.
Luckily, I had a backup of the file from 2 days ago, and was able to salvage most of the styling, minus the work from the past two days. I am trying to apply these styles now via the Child Theme’s style.css but changes are not taking place.
Do I need to create a CSS folder within my Child theme and use a custom.css file from there (…/enfoldchild/css/custom.css)?
Thanks!
Cameron
Hi murphy88!
No, you can use Style.css file of your child theme to add custom CSS codes. Please make sure that wp-content>uploads folder has correct permissions ( 755 )
Best regards,
YigitHey!
Try creating this file manually via FTP:

JosueHey!
There’s the root of the issue, theme folder names should not have spaces. Maybe there is a invisible folder there, if not try contacting your server support for further assistance.

JosueSo I ended up adding the space back into the enfold child folder, and my widget’s all came back.
What I will try to do is copy all of that content, remove the space in the enfoldchild folder name (again), and copy the widget content back in.
Do you have any idea why changing the enfoldchild folder name would change the settings within WordPress?
Am I missing an area (either in the WordPress Dashboard or the database) where I need to update the enfoldchild name, without the space?
Appears it is not loading style.css. But the theme has been loading the custom.css from the parent theme this whole time, and all of a sudden it is not working. Still on theme version 2.4.5. Wanted to figure this issue out before I upgraded to 2.6.1
Error Console:
hi,
i have a similar problem. iàm using a chil theme too. I have some customizations made, stored in style.css in the folder of child theme. After updating the theme to 2.6 the customizations in the style.css are not done by the theme.I have inspected the site with firebug light. The problem is, that the customizations of the style.css are overriden by the values of base.css.
copied out of firebug light:
h1 {
font-size:34px;
line-height:1.1em;
margin-bottom:14px;
}
base.css?ver=1h1 {
font-size:26px;
line-height:1.1em;
margin-bottom:10px;
text-transform:none;
}
style.cssHey!
There will be an update released shortly to fix the child theme issue but I posted a fix for it here: https://kriesi.at/support/topic/after-update-to-2-6-some-css-styles-child-theme-style-css-are-not-being-applied/#post-235122
