Hi, I have just updated the xstore theme and xstore core plug in and I have totally lost the header, the footer is now black and the extra code you provided to align the ‘add to basket’ buttons is not longer working. I have no clue what else isn’t working as the menu in the header is not there of course.

Can I please ask you to review as quickly as possible what is going on. Stupid me didn’t think this would break my website so I didn’t do a back up.

Colour scheme seems to have gone as well from the parts I can see.

Hello,

Because child theme was active http://prntscr.com/urqwim not the parent one. Parent theme settings and child theme settings do not inherit each other. I have enabled child theme. Check your site now.

Thank you.

So when the parent theme is updated, I need to update it and the child theme will automatically update at the same time?

I must have just click activate on the parent theme by mistake when I updated it.

Hello,

Child theme is a custom theme that could be used in case you need to change some styles or add new functionality or change existing functions https://www.8theme.com/documentation/docs/child-theme/ . You don’t need to update files of the child theme, only the parent theme. But keep the child theme enabled if you already set the header, styles using child theme.
