What's going wrong

Site owners report that after using this plugin to set up a child theme, their whole WordPress site stopped loading. Recovering meant finding the admin email, following a WordPress recovery link, and switching themes from the recovery screen before the site came back. The failure is severe because it takes down every page and needs technical steps most small business owners cannot do alone. Owners need a safer way to test theme changes and a fast way to recover. An opportunity exists for a staging-and-rollback service that tests theme switches on a copy first and gives non-technical owners a one-click recovery.
