WordPress How to Make a Website with WordPress Customizing WordPress Themes How to Make Child Themes

After doing all the steps and activating theme, site still looks like previous theme.

Before setting up the 2013 child theme, I had used the 2014 theme on my site. After checking continuously to make sure I was making the 2013 child theme right, and activating it on my site, my site still looks like the 2014 theme. What would be the problem here?

just found that my host was down for a few minutes, not refreshing my site, so the theme change never got through. Sorry for the stupid question.

Silly question and not trying to be funny, but did you check to ensure you put the child theme folder in the correct theme folder?
