Thanks for taking the time to read this. I've purchased the Beep theme from themeforest and created a child theme to work from. I've created the functions.php and style.css files in the child directory. When I activate the theme in WP some of the formatting looked messed up. Especially the navigation area. I've tried placing a PHP echo in the functions.php file which is relayed to the site - so WP is definitely finding the functions.php file. I've attached a screenshot of the child CSS, child functions and the my site directory structure. Also included is a screenshot from WP of what the Parent theme homepage looks like and what the Child theme looks like. Antony
