Visual Editor not working

I am still having problems making updates to the site. I update WordPress to 4.2, this stops the WordPress page editor from working so I update to the latest version of Siteorigins Page Builder but this then breaks the homepage.

I have a copy of the homepage in the Pages section but all the styling seems to get broken. I did try using a maintenance mode plugin but since I couldnt resolve the issue of the home page breaking when updating the page builder plugin I had to deactivate the maintenance mode plugin and restore the backup again.

I am in the process of cloning the site to a development URL so I can show you the problem first hand.

After looking into cloning the site for testing purposes I have discovered it is creating upto 10 different sizes of every image uploaded in the media library, this is making the site take up alot of disk space. Can I safely change the media settings in WordPress to zero to help reduce future disk space usage as I believe the theme has its own thumbnail sizes?.

Yes but WordPress also creates its own images sizes by default using the sizes set in the Settings > Media area. If I set these to zero will it stop creating those extra not required images?.

I cant read your message it says its Private.

I am logged in, I think I had to re-register/reset my password because I couldnt find my original login details.

Sorry, I’ve added the same user details to the 2nd url now:

http://test-stjosephs.nottingham.sch.com/wp-admin

User: Private Snippet

Thanks.

Thanks for all your help, much appreciated. Could you run through in what order you did each update and what stage you altered the child-theme masthead.php. Also what CSS changes you made to retarget the .

Cheers.

…retarget the

<div class="hgroup full-container"> 

Thanks for all the help. I have the test site now looking like the original, see earlier post for URL. The only thing I cant figure out is why the telephone number is not displaying in the top right header. The HTML is there but something must be hiding it.

Also regarding uploading the later version of the Premium theme, do you completely delete the older version via FTP first then upload the zip within WordPress?.

I just inserted it into the masthead.php in my child theme, heres the full code:

<?php
/**
 * Part Name: Default Masthead
 */
?>
<header id="masthead" class="site-header" role="banner">

	<nav role="navigation" class="site-navigation main-navigation primary <?php if( siteorigin_setting('navigation_use_sticky_menu') ) echo 'use-sticky-menu' ?>">
			
		<div class="full-container">
				<?php if( siteorigin_setting('navigation_menu_search') ) : ?>
				<div id="search-icon">
					TEL: 0115 941 8356


					<!-- <div id="search-icon-icon"><div class="icon"></div></div> -->
					<!-- <form method="get" class="searchform" action="<?php echo esc_url( home_url( '/' ) ); ?>" role="search">
						<input type="text" class="field" name="s" value="<?php echo esc_attr( get_search_query() ); ?>" />
					</form> -->
				</div>
			<?php endif; ?>

			<?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'primary', 'link_before' => '<span class="icon"></span>' ) ); ?>
		</div>
	</nav><!-- .site-navigation .main-navigation -->

	<div class="hgroup full-container">
		<a href="<?php echo esc_url( home_url( '/' ) ); ?>" title="<?php echo esc_attr( get_bloginfo( 'name', 'display' ) ); ?>" rel="home" class="logo"><?php vantage_display_logo(); ?></a>
		<?php if( is_active_sidebar('sidebar-header') ) : ?>
			
			<div id="header-sidebar">
				<?php dynamic_sidebar( 'sidebar-header' ); ?>
			</div>

		<?php else : ?>

			<div class="support-text">
				<?php do_action('vantage_support_text'); ?>
			</div>

		<?php endif; ?>
		

	</div><!-- hgroup.full-container -->
	
</header><!-- #masthead .site-header -->
