Hello Alessandra,

Thanks for writing in!

I tried checking the website but it seems that you have activated under construction page. Please try out following solution:

  1. Ensure everything is up to date according to our version compatibility list here. Please follow the best practices when updating your theme and plugins. Click here for more information.
  2. Go to X > Settings and click on the Clear Style Cache button.
  3. If you’re using a CDN, please clear the CDN’s cache and disable optimization services.
  4. Test for a plugin conflict. You can do this by deactivating all third-party plugins, and see if the problem remains. If it’s fixed, you’ll know a plugin caused the problem, and you can narrow down which one by reactivating them one at a time.
  5. Remove custom CSS and Javascript from the options or Child Theme and test the case.

If you still have problems kindly get back to us with the result of the steps above and URL/User/Pass of your WordPress dashboard using the Secure Note functionality of the post to follow up the case.

Thank you.

Thank you for the reply Prasant. Unfortunately clearing cache didn’t work and only thing outdated was php version (i’ve updated now with no results). Plus only plugins im working with are calendar and revslider, so i guess they hardly can be involved into this.
Will be pleased if you have a look on it, leaving infos into secure note! Thanks a lot

Hi Alessandra,

The issue is the default font you are using. See it here:
https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Comfortaa:400,400i,700,700i|Lato:300,700&subset=latin,latin-ext
Comforta, be it bold or normal have the same stroke. That is the reason why you don’t see any changes when you set text as bold. Try using a different font and you can see the difference.

Hope this helps.

Don’t know if i have to open a new thread, but i feel i need to ask it anyway. I’ve added an inline css to add opacity to the background lower image of some sections. It’s working fine on firefox browser, but on chrome not.
The code i’m using it’s this one, might you help me with an “universal” one? thanks!

$el:before {
content: ‘’;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.6) !important;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
}

Hey @asteriaspace,

You can fix it by replacing your code with the following:

$el:before {
  content: '';
  background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.6);
  position: absolute;
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
  bottom: 0;
  right: 0;
  display: block;
}
$el {
  position: relative;
}

Let us know how this goes!
