I have created a child theme of parent theme, and declared default_head_blocks.xml at

<child_theme_dir>/Magento_Theme/layout folder with following content:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../../../../../vendor/magento/framework/Module/etc/module.xsd">
    <head>
        <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no"/>
        <css src="css/custom.css" media="all"/>
        <css src="css/custom_responsive.css" media="all"/> 
    </head>
</page>

and created these 2 css files in directory:

<child_theme_dir>/web/css

and put my custom styles in those files, deleted all static content form pub folder, deployed static content, cleared all caches but still when I check on front end, the custom.css is not included in output, not sure what I am doing wrong while this seems to be standard process as given here ( https://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.4/frontend-dev-guide/css-topics/css-themes.html ) and I did it many times before too.

TIA

---- Added theme.xml & registration.php ---

Though personally I think they have no relation with my problem, still sharing the same, I have personally verified by making changes in other files in my child theme and the changes are getting applied

  • did you apply your child theme from admin panel? if not goto content->configuration->edit theme and apply your child theme from dropdown.

  • run s:di:compile or kindly share your theme.xml and registration.php from your theme.

you have an issue with your default_head_blocks.xml do like this :

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!--
/**
 * Copyright © 2015 Magento. All rights reserved.
 * See COPYING.txt for license details.
 */
-->
<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd">
    <head>
        <css src="css/custom.css" /> 
    </head>
</page>
