Thanks AL July 5, 2020 at 3:52 pm #1353140 LeoStaff Customer Support Hi there, I think they were removed due to the emergence of site library. You can still get it here though: https://generatepress.com/mantle/ Let me know 🙂 July 5, 2020 at 7:31 pm #1353240 albabes There used to be 5-7 of em, and there NOT in this site Library. Would you please defer this to TOM, since you werent here PRE site library Leo? Thanks July 6, 2020 at 9:27 am #1354178 TomLead Developer Lead Developer Hi there, We stopped producing child themes, especially on WordPress.org. The idea behind it was flawed, as the whole point of child themes is that they don’t get updated (so they can hold your custom CSS/PHP). July 6, 2020 at 5:00 pm #1354548 albabes Thanks, Tom but I’m confused. Is the Site Library NOT “child themes”? And why is generatepress.com/mantle/ still up? July 6, 2020 at 8:22 pm #1354652 LeoStaff Customer Support Is the Site Library NOT “child themes”? No it’s not – importing a site library templates does not add a child theme to your site. As for Mantle, I just randomly found that page but the Download Now link no longer works 🙂 July 6, 2020 at 9:39 pm #1354687 albabes Thanks Leo July 6, 2020 at 9:40 pm #1354690 LeoStaff Customer Support No problem 🙂 Author Posts Viewing 8 posts - 1 through 8 (of 8 total) You must be logged in to reply to this topic.
