The parent theme is missing. Please install the "JobRoller" parent theme.
Trying to create a child theme for JobRoller, I have a directory named jobroller-child at the same level as the jobroller directory in the themes directory. currently have a single style sheet with ONLY the following content
/*
Theme Name: JobRoller-child
Version: 1.7.1
Theme URI:
http://www.appthemes.com/themes/jobroller/
Description: Child theme for the JobRoller theme to include language defines
Author: AppThemes
Author URI:
http://www.appthemes.com/
AppThemes ID: jobroller
License: GNU General Public License v2 or later
License URI:
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.html
*/
@import url("../jobroller/style.css");
In administrative area under appearance -> themes I have the following error message...
Broken Themes
The following themes are installed but incomplete. Themes must have a stylesheet and a template.
Name
Description
JobRoller-child
Template is missing.
...So what am I missing?? Everything I find on the interwebs states that a child theme ONLY needs a style sheet. Doesn't help that I don't truly understand how
WP even detects a child themes associate to a parent theme, nothing seems to cover that
Suggestions please?
