Hi @fcpeter,
Thank you for purchasing our theme! ?
And you’re correct, there is no need for a child theme anymore as long as don’t feel the need to change the templates. In this case however, bug fixes and new features might not appear to your website as your child theme will be using another codebase for some of its features. So, we usually recommend to follow the setup wizard and install the desired demo like “Dating”.
These child themes have remained in the package until today for backward compatibility sake and will be removed in the coming future.
I hope that my reply answer your concern.
Best regards,
