Updating the Child Theme

    I read the “Duplicated theme getting WP update” thread that is here, but it didn’t answer my question.

    I want to get updates to my child theme.

    I would like to use this plugin to create custom-branded themes from other themes that I have purchased.

    Example – instead of having the ‘uDesign’ theme show up everywhere in my client’s site, I would like to have the “4SpotMarketing-u” or “4Spot-CLIENT” theme show up.

    If I used this plugin to make a duplicate theme and rename it so that it is ‘custom branded’, will it update the next time uDesign pushes an update — and — if it does update, will it keep the custom branding?

    Thanks,
    Jeff

    Hi jainlv,
    One of the safest ways to maintain customization after an update of a theme you have duplicated, is to manually update the original theme, use what ever type of versioning system you have to check the difference between the old and new updated theme and apply those changes to the duplicated theme.
    Hope that helps and thanks for using duplicate theme!
