We are having the exact same problem. We bought your theme through ThemeForest, and it is showing the version number for the base Specular theme is 1.2.2. The Specular Child theme version number is 1.0.0. In the child theme folder as part of the download, all I have are the following files:

style.css

functions.php

screenshot.png

Is this correct?

This is the error message I get when I go to the Appearance tab in WordPress:

Broken Themes

The following themes are installed but incomplete. Themes must have a stylesheet and a template.

Name Description

Specular Child The parent theme is missing. Please install the “Specular” parent theme.

The Specular Child CSS file contains everything it needs to in order to work correctly. What gives? How do we fix this?

We can’t proceed with creating our website without this issue being resolved. Is there a solution to this or do we need to ask for a refund?

I do have the exact problems as NaidaGuy and will have to create this website this weekend.

Please help as soon as possible as I didn’t consider this to happen when I bought it.

Many thanks

Steph
