Hi
What I also noticed was, if I’m logged OUT, I more often see the sidebar display correctly. If I’m logged IN, the sidebar seems to disappear more often.

Hi
I looked at the website this morning, and for the first page view the sidebar was back. I could also see the breadcrumb and the page title. The breadcrumb was correct, but the page title that was displayed was not that of the ‘why us’ page – which is a separate issue.
The value of the $sidebar_pos, which I’m still using as debug output on sidebar.php, was also showing correctly as ‘sidebar_left’.I then opened another page which also loaded fine, but then when the page refreshed, it loaded WITHOUT the sidebar. This page is set up to use the theme default settings for sidebar, which is ‘sidebar left’.
I went back to the ‘why us’ page which is again displaying WITHOUT the sidebar. The debug value for $sidebar_pos is showing as ‘fullsize’, even though just a few second ago, it was showing correctly as ‘sidebar_left’.
There is certainly something very strange going on. At this stage I was not even logged in to the backend. No page or theme settings has changed in the time that the two pages were loaded. Why is the $sidebar_pos variable displaying the wrong value for the ‘why us’ page? Something seems to override whatever the page setting is.Kind Regards

Hi
It seems to be working again even though no changes were made from my side. Maybe changing between the two themes reset something, even though I tried that a number of times.
Thanks for trying to help.

mHi
My client was getting very unhappy that this issue is taking so long to resolve. I’ve manipulated the display in CSS to manually hide the sidebar on the homepage. To continue debugging the issue, please look at the page HOME TEST, which is displaying the same problem. It is a page that is set up to hide the sidebar and title & breadcrumb, yet both sidebar & breadcrumb are displaying when the page is viewed in a browser.
Thanks
mHi
No the website was not transferred recently. It was deployed to the live server in December. Everything was working fine until this week.
The option that is lost, is the layout settings which is specific to the page – not the overall settings of the theme. The default theme options are set to display a sidebar – THIS page’s layout settings is meant to override that though.
If the theme options was not intact, then surely it would not show correctly on the backend theme settings page? If I open the theme settings, I can see them saved correctly. If I view the page, I can see the layout settings saved correctly – yet, when the page is generated the front-end display is wrong.Kind Regards
mI’ve installed the plugin White Label CMS, which hides the custom fields. I’ve added them back to the screen for you to evaluate. If I look at the values of the custom fields vs the values of the options in the dropdown, then it all seems correct.
I’ve seen the same problem on a new page I created, which is NOT the home page, called Home TEST. The layout settings are ignored.

mHi Elliott
I deleted the header.php from the child theme as there were actually no customizations in the file. The problem is still there.
I even tried to switch to the Enfold theme, where I saw exactly the same thing. The page layout settings are being ignored if I try and hide the breadcrumb and page title.Can you please advise?
Regards
