• I had changed my website using a child theme.

    Last update removed most of the changes and when I click “Read More” I just get a blank page. So all my posts are blank!? All but a few changes to the child CSS have been removed. Translations I made in Child to my language are gone.

    How to get back the previous version?

    No, that didn’t help. I can’t see my posts or pictures at all. The appearance of the first page is also completely wrong. In addition, several things came along that I removed in the child theme.

    But I solved it another way. I deleted ColorMag and installed another theme. Been working on it for several hours now.

    The developers of ColorMag should have been forewarned before this major change was installed.

    I’m thinking a lot about switching CMS to a CMS that doesn’t have a block editor. Don’t like it at all. Even this forum has switched to the useless block editor. It makes posting difficult.

    Automatic seems to think like this: “Why make something easy when you can make it difficult”…

    Hi @workmannen,

    Sorry for the inconvenience caused on your site after the theme major update.

    With the Major update, we have revised the coding structure of the theme, which includes Folder Structure, HTML Markups, CSS Classes, etc. With these updates,

    Since we have refactored the code, the code you have used on your end, i.e., Child Theme Code and Additional CSS code, will no more work. You need to update the code with respect to the theme’s latest changes.

    So, if you are able you change the code on your end, that’s fine. However if you have any difficulty finding the new CSS classes and Markups, please contact us via the live chat support here: https://www.themegrill.com/ and we will discuss further more there.

    Regards

    I could edit in the child theme but realized that my hosting has pro themes for members who have a more expensive hotel package. It was very easy to change and works great with pro parts that you otherwise have to pay for. I like ColorMag, it’s probably one of the best themes available in WordPress. But what I get from my web provider for free, I can’t afford to say no to.

    Hi @workmannen,

    I respect your decision reagrding switching the theme. Anyway, thanks for trying out the ColorMag theme on your site.

    Regards

    You could get read of block editor with plugin. i I don’t like it either and since WP moved to that direction I use “Disable Gutenberg” plugin. It even has an option to remove blocks editing in widgets area. I highly recommend this plugin.

    I had to hold on for a while and look for the edit field to be able to write this:
    I use “Classic”, it removes Gutenberg so only Classic editor can be used. Have something similar for the widgets page.

    Hi @workmannen,

    Thanks for reaching back,

    If you have any issues with the ColorMag theme while using the Classic block, kindlt let us know here and I will get back to you.

    Regards
