    About updates: how is the handling of updates

    1. How do I get updates, via the WordPress UI?
    2. What will happen with my customization?

    Hi there, Please read the updates section from the docs https://archived.seventhqueen.com/documentation/kleo#updates

    Customizations done in the Theme options will not be lost. Any changes done to the theme main files will be lost if you haven’t used a child theme.

    Always make a Database and Files backup before update

    Hi,

    what does that mean; “Any changes done to the theme main files will be lost if you haven’t used a child theme.”
    The customizing I did was via the Theme options, no coding – except the 404.php

    Sorry I am a Newbie in WP, when shall I use the child theme?

    that means that the changed 404.php file will be rewritten unless you used a child theme and copying the changed file in it so it won’t be lost on update

    What I didn’t got is the part of the child! The directory of the child is quit empty…

    So how do I have to handle it, where shall I store the 404.php?
    Does it mean that I have to store each of the customized files in the directory of the child?
