April 4, 2015 at 7:05 pm #1562thewebsiParticipantThanks, It’s working now, except it’s not responsive and that’s the reason we bought it. When I go to the themes page in the admin panel and check theme details of the child theme, it says “This is a child theme of Contango Pro.” so it seems to be setup properly.
I didn’t delete the free version, but it’s in the folder “contango-old” and the theme name is “Contango” while the pro name is “Contango Pro”.
April 5, 2015 at 9:03 am #1563adminParticipantHello,
I will recommend to delete the free version of Contango and don’t alter the folder name. It will also help the easy upgrading in future. Following thread will be helpful to you.
Thanks
