Hi Victoria,
Thanks for your reply. I’ve determined that the other issue was with my web host, not the theme, and the solution I described to the footer and sidebar problem did work. So, I’m all set for now.
Thanks again!
October 28, 2017 at 11:33 am in reply to: After update, custom footer & sidebar content replaced with defaults #869850I believe I have solved the issue.
The custom widgets were saved but deactivated. When I visited Appearance > Widgets > Inactive Widgets through the WordPress dashboard, I was able to drag my custom widgets back into the footer and blog sidebar.
To save time for everyone else, I thought I’d post the apparent fix here. However, I currently have another problem that I believe is unrelated to the theme, and as a result, I’m unable to check the blog sidebar. In any event, this seems to have fixed the issue with the footer, so I suspect the sidebar will be no different.
Hi Devin!
You’re a lifesaver. I set “Frontpage Settings” in my child theme to the new home page, and that did the trick. The rest of the settings were already as you described.
Keep up the awesome support.
Thanks again!

This seems to be fixing the problem. I’ll post again if I have any more trouble. Thanks!

Thanks so much for getting back to me. I added the debug field as you suggested (I actually like having it enabled). Unfortunately, when I copy the shortcode data from the old page’s debug field to that of the new page, and I save the draft, all the shortcode data that I pasted disappears. The resulting page is blank.
So, I decided to try rebuilding the page from scratch. It was working up to a point, but then I hit a snag. It’s the same snag that I hit before all my content disappeared the first time.
Specifically, I’m using the same exact content as before, but for some reason, the styling for one of the elements is no longer applied. I did not change the CSS. The html for the problematic element is below.
<span id=”home-testimonials-title-wrapper”>
<h1>View More Testimonials</h1>
</span>Before I started having all of these problems, I typed this code into the text editor of a text block, and it worked. When I saved the code, it was automatically changed so that the closing span tag is in the top line, as below.
<span id=”home-testimonials-title-wrapper”></span>
<h1>View More Testimonials</h1>However, this never caused any display issues in the browser. The problems started when I decided it’d be better to put the code into a code block instead. Perhaps I’m not using the code block in the Avia Layout Builder correctly, but in any case, it no longer works even when I use the text block as before.
I hope that makes sense and look forward to your advice.
Thanks again!

I have since removed the extra test block, so the page is blank again (except for the header, footer, and a social sharing widget; these never disappeared).
I thought this might help confirm that the problem is, in fact, with the theme.
Any help would be much appreciated!!
Thanks again.
Thanks so much!! Worked like a charm!
