Q: How do I update a WordPress theme without losing my custom changes?


A: To update your theme without losing customizations, it's essential to use a child theme. Before updating, ensure you back up your site. You can update the parent theme directly from the WordPress dashboard. If you've customized the parent theme directly, you'll need to manually transfer these changes to the child theme or manage custom CSS through a plugin.
