This plugin is for site administrators and developers who use child themes. It monitors template files within a child theme, alerting you when the parent theme has been updated and a file in your child theme is now an older version. This helps maintain site security and functionality by ensuring customizations don't inadvertently preserve vulnerabilities or bugs from outdated code.

• Version Comparison: Scans PHP template files for a @version tag in the file header. It displays a clear warning in the admin area when the parent theme's file version is higher than the child theme's copy.
• Visual Diff Viewer: For files with version tags, it provides a side-by-side difference comparison directly within the admin dashboard, similar to the post revision screen, making it easy to see what changed.
• Centralized Dashboard: Adds a 'Child Theme Check' section under the Tools menu, offering a single location to view the status of all template files and access diff views.
• Security Focus: Explicitly highlights that preserving old files in a child theme can preserve security risks, encouraging proactive maintenance after core theme updates.
• Lightweight Integration: Requires only that a child theme is active. It leverages built-in CMS functions for diff display, aiming for minimal performance impact.
