Mimbo Pro comes with three child themes. Two are colorful, and one (“Basic Starter”) is for developers starting from scratch. What is a child theme? It’s a smaller theme which inherits most of its code/functionality from its parent. Thus, when new versions of Mimbo Pro are released, your customizations (saved to your child theme folder) are not overwritten. Read more about child themes on our Child Theme support page Note: if you intend to both customize Mimbo Pro and adopt future upgrades, it’s strongly recommended that you create your own child theme rather than editing the Mimbo Pro core files.
