    Hi there,

    No, you can’t activate parent and child at the same time. A child theme is a theme that inherits the functionality of another theme, called the parent theme. Child themes allows you to modify, or add to the functionality of that parent theme instead of modifying the core theme files directly. It doesn’t matter if you activate parent theme or child theme. You can use automatic update feature as long as your product is validated. To validate product, please check this link : https://community.theme.co/kb/product-validation

    Hope that helps.
