Note: This conversation was moved from the Introduce Yourself Post. The conversation from this point focuses on the creation of an Ultimo Child Theme and some bugs that need ironing out
@DizzyLizzy, how did you get on with the Ultimo Child Theme? Just wondering in case I should take the time to look at it myself this weekend.
Hi Craig,
Apologies for the delay in replying, I was on holiday.
I have had a look this morning and it is helpful although I am still not clear on where this is actually placed in the folder structure.
Kind Regards,
Liz
Hi Craig, so I had another go and I am very sure I have created everything correctly this time and placed the files in the correct place however when I deploy the static files I get an error, well lots of errors actually but ultimately this is the final error … pub/static/frontend/Infortis/holly/en_GB/css/print.css): failed to open stream: No such file or directory
When I check that directory css is missing but all other folders seem to be there. I have tried searching for the answer but no joy, any ideas what I am doing wrong?
Howdie, @DizzyLizzy. No need to apologise for not getting back to me. If you’d like to share your Child Theme with me, then I’ll check it out for you. I just need a hot minute to spin up a server and install Ultimo.
Edit: I’ve built a server ready to try and reproduce your issue, as soon as you’re able to share your child_theme.zip
Thanks Craig, child theme hopefully here
Good morning,
So far I’ve:
United KingdomFrom this stage, I tried 2 methods to reproduce your issue…

Note
It doesn’t appear I was able to reproduce your error. What steps did you take to reproduce it?
Hi Craig,
So I attempted to install the child theme again and managed it this time. I think I was failing to run the upgrade command after importing the files but it all works now. Thank you so much for your valuable help 
Sweet.
Was going to offer you access to one of my sandbox servers (Vanilla install + Ultimo Child setup) if you were still struggling. Glad you nailed it 
Don’t be afraid to reach out if you get stuck again.
Thanks
