I am new to Magento 2 Theme Development; I have gone through the frontend development guide.
I set my child theme to Magento Blank theme. I have done all that the guide says and added my CSS file but it is not showing on the frontend.
I have cleared all the caches and deployed static content.
Below is my setup. Any help would be great!
Local theme path: design/frontend/Speedcrete/speedcrete
Inside the folder speedcrete the structure is:
|-etc | |-view.xml | |- Magento_theme | |-layout | |-default_head_blocks.xml | | |-media | |-preview.jpg | |-web | |-css | |-custom.css | |-fonts | |-images | |-js | |-registration.php |-theme.xml
Here is the code for default default_head_blocks.xml:
<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd"> <head> <!-- Add local resources --> <css src="Magento_Theme::css/speedcrete.css"/> </head> </page>
Here is the code for the theme.xml file:
<theme xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:Config/etc/theme.xsd">
<title>speedcrete</title> <!-- your theme's name -->
<parent>Magento/blank</parent> <!-- the parent theme, in case your theme inherits from an existing theme -->
Let me know if I need to supply more files.
I have tried to run the following commands and then clear the cache and no joy.
php bin/Magento setup:upgrade –keep-generated
php bin/Magento setup:static-content:deploy
Only another thing it might be is that there are no files under design/frontend/Magento/blank. I looked at another forum and they said it was ok as it is stored elsewhere. It seems to be the case as the "blank" theme is showing when I have my custom theme activated. Only cannot see any custom CSS I add.
