    hello,
    I installed the pokatheme-r4.1.1 theme, it works but I cannot install the child theme i get this error message :

    The parent theme could not be found. You will need to install the parent theme, PokaTheme, before you can use this child theme.

    Thanks for help

    I found the problem in the style.css file of the child theme:
    Template: PokaTheme
    While the theme folder is called
    Template: pokatheme-r4.1.1
    so it works

    Stephane, do you think you can explain further the solution, as I am encountering the same issue?

    Hello! The solution is very simple. For the child theme to install, the third line in the css file (in the child theme archive) should look like this:
    Template: pokatheme-r4.1.1
