A warning on the theme page says: "This theme hasn't been updated in over 2 years. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress."


What kind of issues can I expect?

It might start to look weird or perhaps break your blog entirely after some future upgrade to Wordpress. If that ever happens, then you can go into the admin page, and select a different theme.

Well my son had reading issues in ok he's in first now and he has picked matters up pretty well. In the event that they think it's a real drawback then they will have to have had a little one be taught group done as soon as they noticed the problem and your daughter should be competent to have a IEP rather of being "held back" please get her eyes checked due to the fact that is essentially the most overpassed and comman drawback for youngsters with reading problems. My son would most effective read sight words when he left ok however now he is decoding and reading chapter books I fairly fully grasp the struggles with this but, mostly the reading simply doesn't "click on right away" i know she is going to get the grasp of it. You're a excellent mother for being concerned. See if which you can get her some additional aid over the summer season and wait until the subsequent school yr starts before you make a decision if you want to "keep her again" . Just right success

The theme I use on my main site hasn't been updated in over four years. Then again, I've never had to seek support for it, and I've done some (marginally) substantial modifications.



The WP auto-update used to break it once in a while, but I've had no issues of this sort since 2.7, and I'm on 3.4.2 now.

You probably won't be able to get past the first page without errors.



Quite possibly, the theme could be using a script that is exploitable and you could get hacked.
