How do I update the child theme?

While it is essential to keep WordPress and parent theme up-to-date, it is not necessary to keep your active child theme up-to-date – especially if you have customized it.

Replacing a child theme with a newer version will overwrite any customizations to files like functions.php and style.css. If you would still like to update the child theme to its latest version,

  1. Take a full backup of your site or at least that of the theme
  2. Make a note of all the custom theme changes and re-apply them manually after replacing with the new version. Using a filediff software like WinMerge or an online tool like https://www.diffchecker.com/ can be handy to compare the code in theme files

Note: This does not apply to Hello Pro v2 as it will not overwrite your existing Hello Pro v1 theme. It will install as a new theme that you can switch to. You can preview the theme on your site before activating it. Always create a backup before making any theme changes just in case.

WordPress Themes That Highlight Your Brand

Oooh, check out at all the pretty themes!

Once you’ve got a solid idea of your brand’s visual identity and your own website needs (Course syllabus? Video capabilities? Sliding testimonials?), you’re ready to browse our themes and pick out the one that’s going to fit you like Cinderella’s glass slipper.

Copywriting Guides

Having flashbacks to that essay writing class? Don’t fret–we’ve totally got your back when it comes to web copy!

Each theme comes with its own copywriting templates which help you think through what to say where, while making writing as easy as filling in the blanks. And don’t worry, you’re not writing a novel here! Your top 3 pages—Home, About and Work with Me—are the ones to focus on.

Customization Packages

Maybe you don’t want to get your web developer hands dirty and prefer to leave the tech support to someone who can whip up your site in a flash. No worries, we have two packages of techspertise to choose from. Pick the right one for you here.
