Hello everyone,

i’m trying to get my child theme running on my main wp installation. at the theme selection page it gets displayed withut error, but once activated i am stuck with a blank white page and nothing helps but upload a backup db -_-‘ the curious thing is, the same child is working wonderful with another installation i duplicated from my main page with the duplicator plugin…

so, is there anything wrong with my code, or can anyone suggest something i can try?

my functions.php

	function siteorigin_north_child_styles() {
wp_deregister_style( 'siteorigin-north-style');
wp_register_style('siteorigin-north-style', get_template_directory_uri(). '/style.css');
wp_enqueue_style('siteorigin-north-style', get_template_directory_uri(). '/style.css');
wp_enqueue_style( 'childtheme-style', get_stylesheet_directory_uri().'/style.css', array('siteorigin-north-style') );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'siteorigin_north_child_styles' );

and my style.css (just not with the real names^^)
