    In the GeneratePress documentation I find only 2 posts without multisite

    Hi there,

    although its a general good practice to add a child theme, it is only really necessary if you intend to customize any of the the Theme templates. Other good reasons is if you’re writing a lot of CSS or complex functions.

    If this doesn’t apply then no child theme is necessary.

    You just need to follow the instructions here:

    https://docs.generatepress.com/article/using-child-theme/

    In doing so the child theme will apply to all sites on the multi-site.
