[WordPress]What the F***! the parent theme is missing?!
There is a very wired problem. I created a child theme named Fatsom Child and I set 'Template: Fatsom' in style.css and the parent theme is Fatsom which had been already installed. It worked perfectly in my local environment. The child theme could be successfully detected by WordPress and activated manually. But, when I uploaded the parent theme and child theme to my host, a very strange thing happened: In my backend, WordPress threw an error saying "the parent theme 'Fatsom' is missing"! And I could not find 'Fatsom Child' to activate! Why! I was blocked by this problem the whole evening. Finally, I found the solution -- just change 'Template: Fatsom' to 'Template: fatsom' in style.css of the child theme and it works again! I couldn't tell why, but it just happened. If you knows why or encountered the same problem, please comment this blog or email me (wagner@joybin.cn). Have a good day!
