    Hi Amreen

    You can checkout our premium offering from Appearance > Vantage Premium. You’ll see this option available with Vantage Free activated. It’s possible to create a child theme for Vantage before or after upgrading, it’s up to you. You’ll only need a child theme if you’ve directly edited code in theme files.

    Hope that helps.

    Hello Andrew,

    Thanks a ton for your response!
    That helped. Also, I wanted to ask as to whats the best way to create a child theme of the Vantage premium theme?
    Is it better to use @import(…) in child style.css OR should i go with http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes ??

    For sure.

    Most of your customisations can most likely be done using Custom CSS, here is our tutorial on that: https://siteorigin.com/basics/modifying-theme-design-with-custom-css/. You’ll only need a child theme if you’re planning on editing theme files, other than style.css, at a code level.

    If you do create a child theme you can use the @import method outlined at the above child themes tutorial page, although the functions.php enqueue method is preferred.
