Child Theme not installing

[John Bourke]

Hi,

I’ve just tried to switch a site’s theme from Circumference to Flat Responsive but was told when I went to install the child theme that the Parent was missing (it is not, it is the active theme). I had this problem with Flat Responsive before (then when I asked for help you took my login details and solved it so I don’t know what you did to fix it). I’ve now renewed my subscription and downloaded the latest version of the theme in the hope that it would solve the problem. It hasn’t (please see attached). Please let me know how I can fix this problem.

Thanks,
John

PS Although this time I am trying to use the theme on an existing site, previously the problem occurred on a clean new WP installation

Thanks

Hi Binaya,

I’ve checked and it works, thanks. Can you please let me know what the issue was and how I can rectify it when I hit it again (i’ve hit it twice now on different sites about 6 months apart and only with this theme).

Thanks again,
John

Hi John,

It seems that there is some error while you install the theme, so we just upload the latest version of themes by our-self and it works perfectly. That’s all we have done.

Hi Binya,

I’ve taken a look at it appears that the issue might be in the path. The directory name the child theme in is now called:
“child-flat-responsive”

..but the name it’s given when I installed from the download was: “flat-responsive-child”

Bye for now,
John
