I have been using GP premium but was told to use child theme if I wanted to modify my site. I downloaded the child theme from generatepress’s site. I keep getting malicious code errors from WordFence.
All my themes and plugins are updated so why do I get this error? Is this normal?
That looks like your server was compromised and malicious files have been inserted into various plugins and themes.
You’ll need to have that cleaned up by your hosting. Once all of the files are gone, you’ll want to make sure all of your passwords are changed/secure. Also, make sure everything (plugins, themes, WP) are up to date.
Should I use the child theme if I am editing things from the customization dashboard and through elementor? I am not editing anything in the style sheet.
