Missing skin style file in child theme ?
  • Vote Up0Vote Down pollepolle
    Error: The skin style file (/themes/striking-child/cache/skin.css) is not writeable.

    The file does not even exists, what I am missing ?

    Version 5.1.8.1.

    Thanks.

    Hi

    The skin.css file is created once the child cache folder is writeable, the first time you amend any Striking setting. So there is a permission problem at this moment. I think you should ftp to your site, and check the permission of your cache folder, which most likely should be at 777 or 775, depending on one's host.

    But if I may ask, did you clear your cache in the Advanced Panel? You have to flush your cache as well, in order for the new cache to write.

    Hi,

    If there is no skin.css just create it manually in the folder concerned. or copy in the skin.css from the striking cache folder.

    Then it will work.

    Me Bad!

    Not only did I forget about that very straightforward solution Paul supplied (thank you Paul!), but I am thinking I need to check something in the child theme related to this topic.....

    I had to search for an old one, because copying or creating a new one gave me a different style and color.

    So that file needs to be kept to avoid problems.

    ?

    If you just create one and the goto the striking advanced section and import your striking settings from the correct theme then the skin.css is recreated with the correct settings.
