    Hi there,

    So, I am kinda confused. Basically I builded my website (from scratch) with GP pro and GB pro, but I used a template as a starting point. I think I deleted almost every block of the template, and made it myself.

    I did not do any coding. Just lots of edits in customizer and GB editor.

    I did not use a child theme.

    Do I risk losing my website when there are updates? Do I need to take some sort of action to ensure that my website will not crash?

    Thank you.

    Hi Bob,

    You would only need a child theme if you are modifying the parent theme’s core template files.

    Looking at your description above, you do not need a child theme.

    More info here: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/using-child-theme/

    Let me know if this helps 🙂

    Hi Leo,

    Thank you.

    I don’t even know what theme’s core template files are lol, so that’s a good thing.

    Thanks for great support.
