    Greetings-

    I am working on a site at http://colorado911visibility.org/ which has the child theme Prose.

    I was having an issue because I knew there was a new version of the Genesis Framework but I was not getting the notice in the dashboard to update that way. So I downloaded the latest version to my computer and installed the Genesis file via FTP. I noticed that the newest version unzipped to a file named Genesis 3 so in order for it to work right, when I moved the file in I renamed it to simply Genesis.

    It appears that the Genesis Framework is updated but on the front end of the site, it looks to me like the child theme is not recognizing the style sheet.

    Thank you for any help you can provide!

    The problem is that the Prose theme is an old XHTML theme. Genesis 3.x dropped support for XHTML themes. That's why you weren't getting the update notices. You theme is not compatible with Genesis 3.x.

    You have to either upgrade to an HTML5 theme or go back to a pre-3.x version of the Genesis Framework.

    Thanks Victor. Does this also apply to the Education Child theme? Having similar problems on another site using that child theme.

    Depends on which Education child theme version you are using. What is it and share a link.

    Thanks Anita, it just shows Education Child theme and I know its probably an old version because it was one of my very first builds. I did resolve this issue by installing a pre version 3 copy of Genesis on both sites. Thanks Victor for your help!

    Question- Does keeping these older versions of Genesis constitute a security risk?

    Thanks guys

    @michaelwolsey I don't think there would be any security risks, but I think as Genesis plugins are updated to work with the current version of Genesis - if you are using any... they may stop working, malfunction or maybe break in some way. They are really encouraging use more up-to-date themes.
