Update breaks the site
I have many licenses of BeTheme we have been unable to update. I have child themes for all sites, but when the update is installed and the child theme activated everyone of the sites will go down and display this error: The site is experiencing technical difficulties.
If I activate the parent theme, the site works.
Can you tell me what is happening?

This is because you're using an old method for calling functions in a child theme. Recent changes in Envato terms & conditions forced us to make some modifications to the theme files. One of those changes is replacing "mfn_opts_show()" to "echo mfn_opts_get()". This is why your child theme does not work after the theme update.
To make your Child Theme work again, you have to find that function in all of your modified files( in the child theme) and replace the 'mfn_opts_show()' to 'echo mfn_opts_get()'
Look at the screenshot example to make it more understandable: https://pasteboard.co/IdJyIOZ.jpg
