I need to know if it is necessary/recommendable that I create a child theme of GP? Reading online, many people way it’s the way to go. If so, how do you suggest I go about it? Thank you!

Adding CSS and PHP functions can be done using plugins, so there’s no need for a child theme. Let me know if you need more info 🙂 Author Posts Viewing 2 posts - 1 through 2 (of 2 total) You must be logged in to reply to this topic. Log In Username: Password: Keep me signed in Log In
