Last Updates May/June 2018 breaking BG Images

Since the last updates at end May - begin June, Background Images got problematic:

  1. On some sites, if I set a BG Image at Theme Options, it works for the Blog and Blog Archives Pages, but breaks the BG Image for all pages. If I remove BG Image from Theme Options, all pages BG Images are ok but no BG Image on Blog and Blog Archive Pages.

  2. On some Sub-Sites on a Multisite, the Theme Options isn’t available for me (I’m the SuperAdmin on my Network) as you can see on the attached picture. As far as I could see it looks that the permissions on the plugin settings are ok (but not sure).

Hi @fabiofava,

Thanks for posting in.

I can confirm the background issue in my installation, I added this to our issue tracker. For now, please disable the background from theme options and apply this CSS to your global custom CSS as a temporary workaround.

body {
background: url(https://example.com/photo/2016/06/18/17/42/image-1465348_960_720.jpg) !important;
background-size: cover;
}

This should take effect on pages without page image background (backstretch feature).

As for second issue, please provide the site’s URL and super admin login credentials so we could check. It could be related to this https://theme.co/apex/forum/t/previous-version-cornerstone/34188/3

Thanks.

Thanks, this helped me too.

Thanks @Rad! I can live without the BG image for a while, but Child-Sites of a Multisite should have access to X > Theme Options as they have access to Appearance > Customize. In my case I have a Multi Network. In one Network (fabiofava.net) at it’s only Child-Site (fabiofava.com) I can access X > Theme Options but on other Networks’ Child-Sites, I can’t access it, and I’m the only SuperAdmin. Unfortunately is a Production Site and I can’t provide SuperAdmin access to it.

Hey Fabio,

I can replicate this issue in my test site so this must be a bug.

Do you get this when you are in the Settings page also?

Thanks.

Hey christiian_y, I get this when I click on the X menu on the sub-sites. If I click on Theme Options then I have the image I’ve posted originally.

Thank you for the information. My colleague already added this to the issue tracker and our dev guys will follow up the case.

If there is a bug you will see it fixed in the upcoming releases which you can check in our Changelog.

Our development team may get back to you just in case for testing reasons.

Thank you.

Thank you for your update. Surely there’s a (or a few) bug(s): it was working before and now it is not. Hope you guys can get it fixed soon, thanks! Cheers!

You’re most welcome!

Hey there,

Would you mind if we tried a patched version on your site to confirm it fixes these issues before a release? If that’s ok you can add WordPress super admin and FTP credentials to a secure note. Thanks!

Hey @alexander unfortunatelly isn’t possible to FTP or SuperAdmin Access. If you send me the patched version by e-maiil I can install it and we can check if the problem goes away. Cheers!

Sure! I can just add them here in a secure note

Unfortunately the links just opens a blank page and nothing is downloaded…

Sorry about that. Try now. If it doesn’t work again, try right clicking and opening in a new tab.

Hey @alexander , I’ve manage to download, but I won’t be able to test it today due to clients using their sites right now. Tomorrow very early I’ll test them and I reply here in any case.

Ok, sounds good. By then we should have the official point release available so you could just try that instead.

Just wanted to let you know the next point release is live! Let us know how it goes.
