    FYI installing your latest theme update “Blocksy Version: 1.7.11” completely broke the website using it, with and error “There has been a critical error on your website. Please check your site admin email inbox for instructions.”

    In “recovery mode” then it says the plugin “Blocky Companion” failed to load properly. Had to deactivate the plugin in order get the website running again.

    Hey guys!

    Sorry for the troubles, we’re on it.

    One fix is to do as @raganation mentioned or to add this code at the end of the wp-content/themes/blocksy/inc/init.php file:

    if (! function_exists('blocksy_dirname_to_classname')) {
    	function blocksy_dirname_to_classname($dirname) {
    		$class_name = explode('-', $dirname);
    		$class_name = array_map('ucfirst', $class_name);
    		$class_name = implode('_', $class_name);
    
    		return $class_name;
    	}
    }

    We’re releasing an update for this right now.

    Sorry again for the inconvenience.

    Thanks for sharing @raganation! I was silly enough to reactivate the plugin, just to see if it really is the culprit, and it sure broke all again, LOL. Now I replaced it as you have and it works fine. Thank you!

    Thanks for responding so quickly @creativethemeshq. I still don’t see the .12 update in my dashboard, but will update when it comes up.

    BTW something not related to the error, but just wanted to mention it. It would be great if you include detailed information on your website about what exactly comes with the Companion plugin. “Extensions and a lot of other handy stuff” does not really sound too compelling. I was very hesitant about installing it for quite some time. Now even after installing it, I still don’t know what the “other handy stuff” are ??

    Thanks a lot for all your work!

    Sure, @rumka.

    We’ll have a document explaining in length about what exactly the Companion does. Some big selling points for it is:

    – Transparent header (we’ll have a tutorial about this soon)
    – Starter Sites
    – Extensions system (and of course all the extensions that comes with that)
    – Dynamic CSS extracted in a separated file, described here

    But we’ll try to be more clear about this, thanks!

    Here you could find a little bit more info about the Blocksy Companion.
