Importer won’t work for child themes

For whatever reason, the importer will only work with parent themes, not child themes. When a child theme (for a legit ThemeGrill theme) is active, there’s a persistent nag in admin, and demo import is not possible. This topic was modified 5 years, 5 months ago by ellmann creative . Hi @ellmanncreative , Can you please share the screenshot of the issue? And which child theme are you using? Thanks and Regards, Premi J.

I just wanted to give you a heads-up — if WordPress recognises that the parent theme for the child is installed and fine (enough to display the child theme – which wouldn’t otherwise work), then maybe your plugin should recognise it too. Here’s a screenshot to clarify how the situation looks in the network manager’s end: https://i.postimg.cc/JhL3dbHG/Screen-Shot-2020-12-03-at-11-35-09.png Hi @ellmanncreative , Can you please contact us via live chat support?
