Background color disappearing at 4.8.5 update

Hello,

we encountered the same problem today.

It seems like the missing “background=’bg_color” in the posts column shortcode is causing this problem.

[av_one_half ... background='bg_color' background_color='rgba(0,117,190,0.85)' ... ]

Is it possible that the background option wasnt necessary before there was a gradient option? Thus older shortcodes without that option are failing now.

Best regards

Unlike wertbar, I had to actually select a different bg color in my column blocks, then re-select the desired color and save… in order to get my bg colors back. Simply opening and re-saving the block didn’t work for me. It was a huge pain to have to do this dozens and dozens of times… and I still have more to fix. Really glad to hear a fix is on the way, so I can stop manually trying to update them all.

Hi there,

We are experiencing the same issue. We have updated to 4.8.6 yesterday and the background color of the color sections is still not showing. Would you be able to help, please?

Thank you!
Roberta

Hi Günter,

Thank you for your quick response. I tried to both save theme options as well as clearing the server and browser cache and nothing has worked so far. I created a login for you to access our site (info in private section). Thanks!

This worked, appreciate all your help with this!

Best,
Roberta

wouldn’t it be the same:

on line 905 :

$selector_background = ( !empty( $atts['src']) && $atts['attach'] == 'parallax' ) ? 'section-parallax-inner' : 'section-outer';

PS:
Who thinks of such a thing:
First you insert an image, then you set it to parallax. Then you think about the whole thing and delete the image without resetting the options of the image you no longer want. This is the construct when the “bug” is present.

Hi there,

After having updated enfold the problem came back. I just tried adding a section to the home page with an orange background color to no avail. I also tried adding a background image without success.

I also noticed another issue: when hiding a section element inside the Avia Layout Builder, the background image will no longer show on the front end and a white background shows.

Thanks in advance,
Roberta

Hi Rikard,

Thank you so much for the quick response. I was having the issue on our home page. Attaching a couple of screenshots in the private section. The first one is the hiding section element I was mentioning. I also saved a template ( called _COMEON). If you change the background color there you will see it won’t show.

Nevermind, happens on all browsers if I’m logged out of WP – please tell me how to fix. I’ve saved the options, I’ve deleted caches, I’ve changed the background colors, saved, then changed them back. Nothing is working.
