Thank you batharoy, that’s what I thought.
So what would you recommend for the best way to copy the edits I made over? I don’t have a list of what I changed and it was a lot. I’m new to WP but I’m guessing the most logical way would be to:
1. Make a copy of the edited style.css and any .php pages I did right in the theme and save to computer to reference.
2. Do the update/lose those edits
3. Learn how to create/install a child’s theme (suggestions on best tutorials welcome)
4. Cross reference the updated css with my saved/edited version
5. Any code in the saved/edited version that is different from the updated themes .css I copy and paste into the child theme. That should ultimately override the code from the parent theme.
Am I understanding this correctly?
Will I also lose any edits I did just from the Appearance>Customize tab (ie background colors, uploaded logo, etc) when I update and then create a child theme?
Thank you so much for your help and patience.
