Thread: Child Theme on subdomain is not working.

Child Theme on subdomain is not working.

I'm very new to this so please bare with me. I've followed the child theme tutorial perfectly, however, something is not working. I've spent hours trying to figure it out. As soon as I activate my child theme through the wordpress dashboard, things start disappearing from my site even though I haven't clicked "disable core styles" yet and I haven't added any changes to my child theme yet, I've just uploaded the basic information from the tutorial:

/*
Theme Name: ClassiPress Child
Version: 1.0
Description: Child Theme for ClassiPress
Author: Patti
Author URI: http://www.bulletinboard.hometownchatter.com
Template: classipress
*/

@import url("../classipress/style.css");

When I look at my site, the links on the nav menu have disappeared, the links and the footer nav menu have disappeared from the bottom of the page, and the image next to the "welcome back admin" on the home page is missing. Other things on other pages may be missing too but I haven't checked the entire site. Am I missing something? I thought until I add something to the child theme css file and disable the core stylesheet that my site would look exactly the same? When I do disable core styles I lose all style. Does it have something to do with using the child theme on a subdomain?

Please help!
