Sidebar at bottom on home page only

I’m using Vantage v2.2.3 (using a child theme – style.css only), I’ve just updated to WordPress 4.1 and updated Page Builder to v2.0.3 – the website is at http://www.lymingtondistrictdartsleague.co.uk/

After the update, the sidebar on the home page dropped down below the home page text although it was still on the right. All the other pages are fine.

I tried changing the template for the home page to some of the other templates under Page Attributes, which all showed the sidebar where it should be, but when I changed back to Default Template the home page showed a page that doesn’t even exist. The content on the page appears to be the content of some of the pages in the dropdown Player Records: Division 2. The home page should show three paragraphs of text which were made with rows and text wodgets in the Page Builder.

I tried deactivating all the plugins at once, then reactivating them on at a time. but nothing made any difference.

Any idea why it’s doing this and how I can fix it?

    Hi Malcolm

    Thanks for reaching out.

    Your child theme style.css should ideally have an import for the parent stylesheet and then only include the selectors you’ve edited. You can store those selectors either in the style.css file of your child theme or in Appearance > Custom CSS.

    This is how your child theme style.css should ideally start as follows:

    /*
     Theme Name:   Vantage Child
     Author:       SiteOrgin
     Template:     vantage
     Version:      1.0
    */
    
    @import url("../vantage/style.css");
    
    
    /* =Theme customization starts here
    ------------------------------------------------------- */
    

    Your home page seems to have resolved on my side. If this issue pops up again, please try the following under Appearance > Custom CSS OR in style.css of your child theme:

    /* Page Builder Home Template Fix */
    
    .blog.siteorigin-panels-home #primary {
    float: left;
    width: 71.287%;
    }
    

    Apologies for the hassle. We have this bug logged and will attend ASAP.

    Hi Asplon

    Yes, the home page has the sidebar in the correct position, but it’s showing the wrong content.

    The home page is showing a page that doesn’t even exist. The content on the page appears to be the content of some of the pages in the following dropdown – Player Records: Division 2. The home page should show three paragraphs of text which were made with rows and text widgets in the Page Builder.

    Do you want me to create a temporary login and email the details to you so you can see the content that should appear on the home page?

    For sure. Send a set of temporary login details to [email protected] and I’ll take a look ASAP. Please send an email from yourself, linking back to this thread. Automated emails from WordPress with user details are hard for us to track. Thanks.
