Layout broke after 2022 theme update (last update spring 2022)

  • Hi, I need help with updating the 2022 theme & fixing a broken layout afterwards. I am administering a site for a friend, the site is working OK but I got it in a state when everything needed to be updated. I started updating everything but the theme update broke the layout of the page. No white screen, no maintenance message, just a broken layout of the website. I found out that the website is running on 2022 theme version 1.2 which was released in May 2022, so it looks like the theme hasn’t been updated since then… I reverted the update so the page is working and I can work on fixing the problem. Does anybody have any idea what to do now? How to have the page all up to date but of course working properly? Thanks a lot for your ideas.

    Hi there,

    If you share what part of the layout broke, we might have a better idea of what might be going on.

    Also, the last update for the theme was only about 5–6 weeks before you created this topic (April 2, 2024).

    This is a default WordPress theme (comes with the WordPress core), so it generally has consistent and reliable updates.

    Hi, thank you so much for your answer.

    About the updates, I expressed myself incorrectly. What I meant was that the last update of the theme on the website has been done in May 2022 by the former administrator, he hasn’t updated the website since then. So when I try to update to the latest version that has been released a few weeks ago, the layout of the page breaks. This is how it looks like if I try to update:

    You can check out how the page is supposed to look like here https://institut2050.cz/.

    Thanks a lot again!

    Sorry, I keep having trouble to upload a simple screenshot here… It never uploads. The links are genuine, no scam, you can open it.

    Hi there,

    Just got to see your reply now. I see how that might be frustrating, and it is super important to update the theme indeed.

    This kind of issue could really come from several directions. I don’t think it is happening because of the content or structure of your site or even the theme itself. This specifically looks like an issue with a performance plugin, such as minified JS/CSS.

    Could you please check if there are performance plugins activated on this site and deactivate them before trying to update the site again? If that doesn’t help, you could also try deactivating other plugins to see if it is more of a generic plugin conflict, and identify what is bringing the issue.
