Updating your theme.

Will my content get overwritten after updating the theme?

No, your content will not get overwritten to the default content after updating the theme. In the rare case that it does happen to you, feel free to reach out to the Sprocket Rocket Support Team.

I created a child theme, will updating the theme affect the child theme as well?

Yes. Generally, without cloning the files to the child theme, updated changes in the parent theme will reflect in the child theme.

I created a child theme and cloned everything from the parent theme to the child theme, will updating the theme affect the child theme as well?

Not exactly, a file in the same relative path of a child theme will overwrite the equivalent file from the parent theme. What this translates to is that, even after updating the parent theme, cloned files in the child theme will not be affected till they are manually updated to match the files in the parent theme.
