Im editing the child of the magazine theme and am trying to override a file which is in a subdirectory within the parent theme. So far I have been able to override a file in the parent root by copying it to the child theme root. However if I create a mirror subdirectory and enclosed files across to my child the override does not work for these. Any help appreciated !

My newly created 'override' directories have the same user ownership and permission and the originals in the parent. Should copying a subfolder and contents definitely override the parent ?

Hiya,
Tammie will get back to you on this as soon as possible :)
Also, when creating a new thread be sure to select the theme or plugin in the dropdown for faster responses.
Thanks,
Andrew

Really sounds like a file/directory permission error to me.
