I had the same problem as PhillS. It really created some issues on my blog (www.inamirrordimly.net). I spent a lot time going back and forth between my host, StudioPress, and my developer. The issue is that another company has produced a theme called Prose. WordPress sees that I have the Prose Child theme on my site and thinks I need to update to the new “Prose”. I don’t because it’s actually not the Studiopress Genesis Framework Prose theme. So, that is the issue. Is there any way that WordPress can correct the duplication so that I’m not getting update notices for a theme that isn’t mine? Anyone using the Studiopress Prose child theme is going to have this problem if they think they are just routinely updating their theme. It crashed my entire site. I couldn’t even get into the WP admin or look at my dashboard. It was yucko. Thanks to my developer, it’s fixed now and backed up on my host server. But, still no fun.
