Child theme not found in the dropdown in the **Appearance** section

Good day!

I have a problem with the child theme.
After enabling the child theme in the plugins, the dropdown by the Theme still appears to be empty.
Any help is much appreciated!

Hi @leki

Can you double check that you activated the theme plugin for the specific journal, not only site-wide?

I’ll try that. Sorry for the very late reply. By the way, should I enable both the parent and the child theme?

Or does it work like WordPress where I just have to enable the child theme only as long as the parent class is set in the oldGreggChildThemePlugin.inc.php file?

Activation of the child theme should be enough. As far as I remember it is enough for the parent theme to be present in the themes folder.

If you have multi-journal installation there should be several plugins tabs - site-wide and for each journal. The theme should be activated for the journal(s) that you want to use it with.

Alright, thanks for the help @Vitaliy!
