Are child themes the answer to the task of maintaining wordpress mu themes
20 Oct
Being between projects, I am amusing myself by trying to revive the deprecated “almost spring” theme as a child theme of k2. While working on it, suddenly it occurred to me that it might actually be a great idea to convert all the themes that I have at this wordpress mu installation to be children of the k2 theme. Done right it will mean that there is only one theme to upgrade and check when there is a new version of mu, and it will be a lot easier to write plugins which affect all the themes.
