    Hi:
    I have used the Greenshift Theme on two sites now and am working on a third. In all three cases I started with the Greenshift Theme, then used the Create Block Theme plugin to create a Child Theme so that I could make some template changes, etc. However, I didn’t make the first child theme from the original Greenshift Theme – I made it from the Greenshift Theme AFTER having made some changes in the header and footer templates and in those templates I used a couple of Greenshift Plugin blocks.

    The problem is, when I go in to work on the new child theme the first thing I see is that those Greenshift Plugin blocks are Unsupported (even though I have the Greenshift plugin loaded and activated. So I end up having to rebuild these template parts, which kind of defeats the purpose. The Greenshift plugin blocks work in the child theme when I replace them – the problem is they have to be replaced every time.

    I posted about this in the Gutenberg forum and they said I should take it to the plugin developer…sigh. The native WordPress blocks ARE supported and don’t need to be put in again.

    So to summarize: when I make a child theme of Greenshift Theme, GreenShift – Animation and Page Builder Blocks are unsupported in template-parts that contain them and I have to put them in again, after which they’re fine in that child theme.

    Pages that contain GreenShift blocks move from theme to child theme with no problem – as long as I have the plugin loaded and activated they show up with no error messages. It’s just in the template-parts that they’re unsupported.

    I don’t know if this is something you can replicate or remedy?

    Thanks!

    I tried using a block from the Getwid Block collection and it did the same thing. I don’t like the native row block and prefer the Greenshift Row or Getwid Section blocks. But even though I have the plugin loaded and activated they can’t be used in template-parts without hassles.

    Is this something all block collections are dealing with?

    Child theme doesn’t affect anything to blocks, it’s affecting only your theme. But maybe you did it in wrong way. I recommend to write to support of Greenshift plugin
