Upgrading 6.5.1 to 6.6

We made an attempt to upgrade 6.5.1 to 6.6. Our design is using a child-theme structure and when we upgraded there were quite a lot of errors happening with the site and the way our data was being rendered. Am I missing something with the upgrade steps when using a child-theme as we’ve done?

Hello,
Well, if the modification in the child theme is created in a file that was updated in the newer version, you will have to recreate the modification as well. The child theme is not ‘update proof’, it only delays the recreation of your modification for a while until the files in the main theme get modified. Then you need to adapt your modification to the new files and overwrite the ones in your child theme.
Thank you!
