    Hi all,

    this might be an easy one.
    I'm supposed to upgrade to version Genesis 2.1.2
    Now if I do this, would there be some readjusting neccessary afterwards or would all settings typically stay as they were before?

    Apart from that it says that I have a delicious child theme.
    Would anyone be able to quickly exlpain the deal?
    I have WordPress 3.9.2 running Delicious Child Theme theme and then Genesis in addition.
    How does this all interact?

    Upgrading to the latest version or WordPress should not affect your current site, I have three sites and never had an problems.


    To speed up the process please post the link to the website in question.

    We recommend using Firebug to view source codes http://getfirebug.com/

    It actually depends on what you're upgrading from. Delicious is an older theme and I don't even see it for sale by StudioPress anymore. It's not HTML5. If you're on a Genesis version older than 2.0 then yes there could be some issues in upgrading, particularly if you've put customizations in place.

    Before doing any upgrade - especially this one - be sure to take a backup of the site and know how to reinstate it if something goes wonky.
