    I'm building a very simple child theme using Genesis as my parent theme. With an older version of Genesis, all is well. As soon as I update to 3.1.2, I lose all formatting. This occurs even when Genesis is selected as the primary theme. I'm sure I'm missing something. Can anyone tell me what? I've included the url, but I reverted back to the older ver of Genesis so I can be working on the site.

    Genesis is not ever meant to be used as a primary theme. With Genesis, you must use a child theme. As of version 3.0, the Genesis Framework no longer includes a style sheet. The style sheet is only available if you create one for your child theme.

    Most devs, when building a custom child theme, will start with the Genesis Sample and go from there.
