    I made my new site with the catch kathmandu free theme. I made some changes by using the css.box.
    I am verry happy with the results. I read in the forum that changes will disappeare when not using the childtheme
    I’m using direct admin. Is it necessary to update the theme? And if Yes do in need to make à childtheme? When in need to make an childtheme where do i find information to make one. My site http://www.ergotherapieveltman.nl

    @mveltman: You don’t need to build child theme if you are ok with the changes you have made from “Appearance => Theme Options” panel. These changes are perfectly fine and you don’t need to build child theme. Your changes made though Options panel is perfectly safe to update.

    You only need to build child theme in you are doing advance customization of functions and style.

    Note: You should not change any core theme files such as index.php, functions.php, style.css and so on. To edit these files you need to build child theme. As these files will be reverted back to original when you update the theme.
