Serious issues on update V: 1.3.3
-
Hello, I’ve just done an update to Version: 1.3.3 and have serious issues.
1) The Homepage menu is completely messed up showing multiple instances of the menu. The social media links are also showing a lot of the default link image in spaces that should not be there. The update seems to have removed the menu as was previously set-up and that should not (and in the past has not) been affected by a theme update. Luckily I’ve been able to get this sorted, but the theme update has never affected this before and should not have affected now.
2) The Homepage slide which shows the highlighted posts are not showing the excerpt – or rather it is but the font has gone to white, making it invisible unless highlighted – was not an issue before. This then leaves an ugly space that looks wrong to people viewing the site.
3) When creating new posts, something has changed meaning when I type in the visual editor, the text in the text box is not showing – that also is in white, which makes using the visual editor extremely painful and unhelpful. The only way to use it now is to change the font color, and then do your post/page and then remove the custom color so it does not affect the actual site post. I raised this with Classic Editor plugin editors and they say they have not made changes that would affect that. I need to see if there is something in the last two Music Lite updates that may have inadvertently affected this (which was when the issue happened, but I thought it was Classic Editor).
I have not included my clients site here as it is a known artist and of course I need to protect their privacy and site by not highlighting the exact site with issues. I am happy to give that in a private environment to better help sort the issues.
I did try to revert back to the previous iteration of the theme but the back-up is not restoring it.
Hope to hear from you soon. This has been a relatively stress-free theme but there have been a couple of issues in the last two updates (as highlighted above) that are trouble-some.
Thank you in advance.

Hi @organicthemes I really appreciate the reply back (please extend my thanks to Emily BTW).
Cool username btw!
Thanks. I’m a Marilyn Manson fan – comes from my days on the forums and a nickname that was given to be around the Arma-goddamn-MF-geddon single a few years ago.
I’ve pushed an update to the theme (1.3.4) which should address the text color issue within the classic editor. Additionally, it should fix the text color issue for the excerpt within the slideshow widget as well.
Ah that is brilliant on both fronts. I will look out for the update and do so as soon as it comes through. If there are any ongoing issues I will drop a message back on this forum.
Regarding the menu issue, I’m not sure what would have caused the issue as you described. I can see nothing in the theme code that would have caused this with the previous update.
I did find it very puzzling that as soon as I did the theme update it seemed to ignore the chosen menu I had created and instead defaulted to showing all pages on the menu section. Luckily I figured out that it just needed the menu section to read that dropdown choice and saved again.
if you updated the theme from a significantly older version, there were older updates that improved the menu, and maybe it was just a matter of clearing your browser cache.
I do update the themes when a new ones comes through so I was updating from the previous version. However if it does happen again, at least I now know the fix.
And I just want to say thank you. As I mentioned to Emily on chat support, this is a great theme and I’ve not until the past two updates had any issues with it. And it’s been a great theme for my client, really bringing us forward in terms of functionality and design.
