Dark color sections becoming white

Hey valerieh,

Thank you for the inquiry.

Do you have any scheduled tasks or cron jobs running on your site? For example, automated backups, cache clearing plugins, optimization plugin or any custom scripts that run on a schedule? Some of these can accidentally strip inline styles or regenerate css files in a way that drops custom color settings from your sections.

It would also help to know if you’re using any plugin that modifies or minifies css, such as Autoptimize or a similar tool. Disabling file compression temporarily via Enfold > Performance > File Compression can help rule out the theme’s own css merging as a factor.

Let us know the result.

Best regards,
Ismael

Hi,
It sounds like a caching issue with smushit, try disabing it for a week and see if that helps, or add this function to your child theme function.php

function custom_avf_post_css_create_file( $create ) {
	return false;
}
add_filter( 'avf_post_css_create_file', 'custom_avf_post_css_create_file', 10, 1 );

Best regards,
Mike

Hi,
When I check the section background is now dark, so it seems correct now. It looks like you have not tried the function in your child theme function.php

function custom_avf_post_css_create_file( $create ) {
	return false;
}
add_filter( 'avf_post_css_create_file', 'custom_avf_post_css_create_file', 10, 1 );

Give that a try.

Best regards,
Mike

Hi,
If your active theme is Enfold and not the child theme, then the code added to the child theme will not work.
It would be best to activate the child theme. Have you ever had the child theme active? Have you imported the parent theme settings into the child theme? Have you added any snippets into the parent functions.php file?
Assuming these are all no, follow these steps:
1 With your parent theme active, go to Enfold Theme Options > Import/Export > Export Theme Settings File and download your theme settings file for fallback.
2 Ensure your Enfold Theme Options > Performance > JS & CSS file merging and compression is turned off along with any caching plugins.
3 activate the child theme
4 Go to the child theme Enfold Theme Options > Import/Export > Import Settings From Your Parent Theme and import
5 Go to your homepage and clear your browser cache a couple of times and check that the settings have taken effect.
If it doesn’t look quite right, then check that your child theme Enfold Theme Options > Performance > JS & CSS file merging and compression is turned off and clear your browser cache a couple of more times.
If still not quite right, then go to child theme Enfold Theme Options > Import/Export > Import Theme Settings File and upload the theme settings file you saved earlier for fallback and clear your browser cache a couple of more times.

Best regards,
Mike
