GuestHello,
I want to make a serious complaint about the Enfold theme’s very large “Reset All Options” button being placed right under every page in Enfold Theme Options. The placement makes it extremely easy to click by accident.
I destroyed my site in one click after spending three days meticulously setting it up. I’ve seen on your forums that this issue happens to many users, and it’s not uncommon. My support period has expired and I paid for this theme a long time ago, so it feels unfair that I have to pay again just to report how problematic this placement is.
There is no clear “Are you sure?” or confirmation before the reset executes, and the button is right where your eye and cursor naturally land as you scroll the settings. When I have clicked it in the past, I thought it was resetting only the specific settings page I was on. This time the placement caused the click — I didn’t even read the button text before instinctively clicking because it was right where I expected the “Save” or similar button to be.
This needs to be updated. A destructive action like this should be in a safe location and require a confirmation step, not shown prominently on every settings page where it’s constantly open to accidental disastrous results. It’s a simple change that would prevent a lot of unnecessary loss and frustration for your users.
In addition to a confirmation prompt, the reset action should recommend that users export their theme settings first (using Enfold > Import/Export → Export Theme Settings File), so they can easily restore customisations if something goes wrong. According to the documentation, exporting theme settings saves all theme options into a file that can be re-imported later — this is exactly the kind of protective step missing before a destructive action like “Reset All Options” is run.
guys please , I beg of you fix this issue, its heartbreaking when you loose all your settings because an easily preventable mistake.
Thank you.

Sorry to hear about the trouble. We will forward this issue to our channel and look into moving the reset button away from the save button. There is an alert before the reset proceeds, but we agree that it can be accidentally overlooked or missed, especially when you’ve been working on configurations for a long time.
In the future, we recommend installing a backup plugin such as Duplicator, UpdraftPlus or All-in-One WP Migration and Backup, which can create scheduled backups (for example, every 24 hours). This way, you won’t lose your progress if accidents like this happen.
Thank you for your patience.
Best regards,
