    Hi,

    I'm trying to customize the genesis child theme that comes with 1.9. I made a new folder called Sample1 and copied all of the files from genesis-sample into it. I uploaded it using FTP but when I looked at it, all of the formatting was lost (blue links, serif fonts, no sidebar, etc.). This also happened when trying to work on the theme in XAMPP. Does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong?

    Thanks in advance,

    ToniB

    Just changing the file folder name doesn't change the internal workings of the theme. Rename the folder to SAMPLE and it should return to normal.
