    I am using Focus Pro on one of my websites and see that it has not been updated since 11/14. Should I be concerned about this? I hate to have to be regularly changing themes as the older ones that I have purchased are not updated for several years.

    Child themes are rarely, if ever, updated. This is because the functionality comes from the Genesis Framework. As long as you keep Genesis updated, you are fine.

    Thank you Victor. Are all the older genesis themes automatically mobile responsive?

    Hi,
    No, not all of the older Genesis themes are mobile responsive. In fact, just until recently there was an option "mobile responsive" you could choose when shopping for themes, so if a theme is pretty old, chances are it's not mobile responsive. Simply change the width of your browser window and see what happens.
