How to save changes in Newspaper/functions.php after update?

My software developer added some modifications to the end of functions.php file.
Those modification didn’t change Template options, this is for online chat operation for all pages.
screen – https://prnt.sc/vtlnpc
When I updated Template to the new version – those modifications were erased in the new brand new file – functions.php
I have to find old backup file and added some code manually again to run chat.

I heard about “Child Template” option to avoid such problem after update.
Could you explain, is it possible to do it with Newspaper template?

Hi kibiribi,
If you have set some code in theme functions.php you can use the child theme and set the code in the functions from the child, in this way the code will no longer be removed.

Hope this should help you!
Thank you!
