style.css file doesn't work

[Deleted user]

Hi there,

I just install this child theme and have activated it.
The functions.php file works perfectly when I added some functions.

I have an issue with the style.css files.

Nothing happens when I apply some code.

I installed the child theme without changing anything else.

Do you have any idea? What can I try?

Thanks for your help. 🙏

It's ok, I found in the official Wordpress Codex some code and it's work.

`
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_theme_enqueue_styles' );
function my_theme_enqueue_styles() {

$parent_style = 'hello-elementor'; 

wp_enqueue_style( $parent_style, get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' );
wp_enqueue_style( 'child-style',
    get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/style.css',
    array( $parent_style ),
    wp_get_theme()->get('Version')
);

}

Hi,
a little update of my issue if someone can help me to understand why it's not working the child theme for me.
So, i installed WP from scratch + Hello Elementor parent and child theme on local without any customs, and it's working well, so i don't understand why it's not working on the web ?
Thx for your help!
Eric

All the information you need is documented in the Child Themes handbook.
