I had a site hosted on wpengine that I built with the Enfold theme. I based it around the boxed wood style. When i pushed the site live (literally just changed the A record to point to the new server), I lost the preset styles. I think it reverted back to the original preset. When i click on the Boxed Wood style, it is selected and I can save and it shows that that style is selected, but when I view the site, nothing changed.
I am using a child theme, but built with the Enfold theme as parent.
I’ve also reset permissions based on WPEngine’s settings, as well as cleared the cache everywhere.
I’ve seen that the enfold_child.css file is set to 664 permissions, and based on another forum post, i’m getting the server guys to change that to 755.Besides possibly that permissions thing on that one file, I can’t figure out why its not showing the right style. Any ideas?
Update: The permissions on that file seem fine and I can see the ‘updated’ date change if I change the preset styles, but the live site still doesn’t change at all.
Update:
I’ve got the theme’s style working now. Following instructions from other forum posts, I made sure permissions were good, then switched between a few of the styles (about 5 times), saving each time, then cleared ALL caches, including server-side, and finally after about 10 minutes of waiting, it changed.
I can’t say which of the above actually helped, or if there is another factor somewhere that delayed the style changes, but its now up.
Just a note to developers: This happened because i moved my site from a staging server to a live server. All of enfold’s options were wiped out, and this includes after exporting and importing the styles via the Enfold export/import tool. I had to reset all the options, including adding in the logo and favicon. Just nothing saved in the move, which is odd since it was literally on the same server. Not sure if this is common, but its happened to my sites twice with the enfold theme now.
Hey!
Thank you for using the theme.
