Kudos from woorkup.com/generatepress-review/

Was curious Tom of the reviewers claim:

No Child Theme Needed, One of the best features of GeneratePress is that I no longer have to use a Child theme.

Given that the hooks ADDON is no more?

Hi there,

Not sure what you mean?

Child theme is still not required with GeneratePress.

The original hooks add-on has been replaced with Hooks Elements a few versions ago which doesn't require a child theme:

Let me know if this helps :)

Its not? Had no idea!

So how to avoid probz if editing functions.php or style.css?
Code snippets and Simple CSS?

Yup:
Adding CSS: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-css/

Adding PHP: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-php/

Thanks Leo

No problem :)
