    Hi,

    I logged into my site and ever since wordpress made its new change, my site has been having issues…

    I just tried to edit a page and it now displays blocks up top but if I scroll down, i see they layout builder. However, when i click an element within the layout builder, it opens up blank with no preview..

    How can I fix this?

    Hey Donny,

    Please try adding this to your functions.php file to disable the Gutenberg editor:

    // disable for posts
add_filter('use_block_editor_for_post', '__return_false', 10);

// disable for post types
add_filter('use_block_editor_for_post_type', '__return_false', 10);

    Best regards,

    Thanks. However, it pushes everything down on the right side. Typically the option to update the page, change page visibility, etc is no longer at the top. Will these setting alos mess up when we go to update the theme when the next update comes out?

    Hi,

    The update to 4.5.x has to be done manually unfortunately, please refer to my replies in this thread: https://kriesi.at/support/topic/enfold-4-5-theme-update-update-failed-download-failed-a-valid-url-was-not-pro/#post-1021541

    You can either update manually via FTP: https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/how-to-install-enfold-theme/#theme-update, or use a plugin to upload the theme zip file: https://wordpress.org/plugins/update-theme-and-plugins-from-zip-file/

    Also please read this thread: https://kriesi.at/support/topic/updating-to-enfold-4-5-and-validating-personal-token/

    Once you have updated to the latest version then you can select which editor to use in the theme options, you don’t need the code I posted previously.

    Best regards,

    Hi,

    am I able to just go to Appearance > Themes > Add New > Upload Theme and upload the new enfold.zip i got from themeforest? If so, will this override all my settings? Id prefer not to have to install another plugin as i like to run a light website (minimal plugins).

    Ill check out those threads as well.

    Thanks,
    Donny

    Hi Donny,

    You can do that but only if you use the plugin, you can delete the plugin once you are done with it. You can also delete the theme from the backend, then upload it again. You shouldn’t lose any of your settings, but as on all updates you should have backups of the site in case something goes wrong.

    Hi,

    Yes we can but we will need FTP login details as well, and a confirmation that you have backups of the site in case something should go wrong.

    Hi,

    I do not have FTP login info and that is why I downloaded the plugin. is it not possible for you to do it via plugin? Can’t i just re upload the theme from the appearance > New Theme upload? or would that override my settings?

    Thanks,

    Donny

    Hi Donny,

    You can export theme settings, delete the theme and upload a fresh version and then import the settings back. This should help you.

    Best regards,
    Victoria
