Do I making any mistake related to the child theme, because I have not touched it apart from your shown way, only PHP codes which u peoples giving I am pasting in function.php and saving, apart from it I do nothing with child theme.

Lead DeveloperLead DeveloperHi there,
What do you have inside the child theme
functions.php
file? It’s likely something in there is coded incorrectly and causing the error.Documentation: http://docs.generatepress.com/

I installed rank math Pro, which I have purchased recently, it was asking to add a line of PHP code in function.php so I did it, However, I don’t call it a problem of rank math because it’s common and happens each time even in every week…
Ask Leo he has asked several times that my website is down, it was not down actually coz it was broken down and I am restoring it always from backup…Refer error email which i receive almost every week –

And child theme which I use is below –

Did you resolve the error with the Child Theme?
Seems it was because of WordPress 5.6 update, which was installed automatically.
I just checked the site and I cannot see any issues with the child theme.
And its because I have restored it from backup, but it breaks each week due to some issue, dont know why..

StaffCustomer SupportIf it breaks again then i would recommend you speak to your hosting provider and ask them to review their error logs – this should help pinpoint what the actual issue was.

Okay David, Can you suggest something like – is it mandatory to use the child theme ??
I use CSS codes given by you, and updates are also coming from time to time still despite the child theme site is breaking ….??

StaffCustomer SupportThe alternative to using a Child Theme for adding PHP Snippets is to use the Code Snippets plugin:
