GP Premium requires GeneratePress to be your active theme.
5 replies · Started by Ayoosh on November 13, 2020
I have installed the GP premium and need to do some customization for work as per our need, few of the requirements are:
1. Having few custom widgets.
2. Customizing few styles (I know this can be done without child theme).
3. Injecting few additional CSS and JS files
I followed your guidelines and used the same child theme (https://docs.generatepress.com/article/using-child-theme/#installing-a-child-theme) to perform these customization, however, after using the child theme I am getting "GP Premium requires GeneratePress to be your active theme." message. Though it seems the things are working fine and I can see the customization and other things working as expected.
I am not a WordPress expert and before moving forward, I want to make sure I am not doing any wrong step and having a child theme will not create any issue for me
Hi there,
Can you make sure the free theme is installed along with the child theme?

Let me know :)
Yes, I installed the free theme first..purchased the GP premium, activated it and den only installed the child theme.Currently my child theme is the active theme.
Here is the screen shot for your reference
What if you download and install a child theme from here without modifying it?
