My God, I really wish I had come to this forum and read the issues with this train wreck of an update before blindly trusting it! None of the above solutions worked for me and I’m now attempting to restore my client’s site from a backup with my fingers crossed that it’ll work. If not, I may find myself re-constructing the site altogether. Not looking forward to explaining this mess to her!
This is incredibly disappointing. Sydney has been my go-to theme for so many sites and this update is an absolute dumpster fire. Bad move, guys, really bad. Hope you’ll do better in the future.
