Missing background elements

    Hi Marcel,

    Firstly, thank you for your plugin, and for keeping it updated and answering all these queries!

    I have installed your plugin and also made one change in my Child Theme functions.php file, using your own code, to edit the “Admin Reply by:”

    However, just as I was about to close the laptop for the night, I noticed some normal design elements on my site have disappeared. They are all background gradients, and they are missing from the top sections on the Homepage, Journal, Comments and Guestbook pages. Sadly I can’t attach a photo to show you the before an after…

    If I run my site in Safe Mode the design elements come back, and they were there before I installed your plugin. Have you any idea why this might be, or do you have a solution that you could suggest?

    Many thanks for your help

    It could be that some code you added broke the site, probably in a later part of the page. That way not all CSS and JavaScript will be loaded.
    Currently I see that is all being loaded on your website.

    Could you paste the exact code here that you entered? I can then look at it and try it out. It might just be a small thing.

    Hi Marcel,

    I just added this:

    // change 'admin reply' name on Guestbook
function my_gwolle_gb_admin_reply_header( $html, $entry ) {
       // $html is a string
     $old = 'Admin Reply by:';
     $new = 'Reply from ';
     $html = str_replace( $old, $new, $html );
     return $html;
}
add_filter( 'gwolle_gb_admin_reply_header', 'my_gwolle_gb_admin_reply_header', 10, 2 );

    The problem still exists with or without this code…

    Can you install the plugin Query Monitor?
    You wil then get a menu in the admin-bar and it might show errors.

    @mpol I don’t know what I’m looking at with Query Monitor! There’s a lot of information…

    @mpol Update! A colleague has helped me set up the background elements using CSS (I had them displaying in a different way before) and these now work. So my problem is fixed, but not solved! I wish I knew why the elements stopped displaying. Anyway, just thought I’d let you know.

    Okay, I hope that is good for you.

    In QM, you might see a toplevel item with PHP Errors. If that is there, can you click on it and paste the errors here?

    I tried QM again and I just don’t know what I’m looking for. Nothing is jumping out at being an obvious error. I’ve got the site back to how I want it, even if it is through an alternative solution. So I have a working Guestbook (thanks!!) and a working site, so I can’t complain!

    Thanks again for engaging ??

    Okay, then I assume there are no PHP errors, so that seems good.

    Have a good week ??
