    Hello There,

    Thanks for the updates! To backup your site, what you have done is correct. If you want something easy, you can install a 3rd party plugin to do the backup for you. Please check out this link: https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/free-quality-backup-plugins

    And yes you have to import back again the XCS file to make sure that you will have the same settings prior to your updates.

    I would highly recommend that you create a staging site. This is very useful because you can test drive any X updates in the staging area, do the customizations and troubleshooting without disrupting your live site. Once everything is perfect, you can easily and flawlessly proceed the update in the live site. To know how to create a staging area, please check out these articles:

    Hope this helps.

    No worries, I made an exact same site, here it is: http://nox1.gr/streetmodebu!
    Can you tell me again what to do from now on?

    I updated the X Theme on http://nox1.gr/streetmodebu

    All are up to date, I didn’t use the json file but everything looks prefect.

    The good news is that, for sure, the plugin that causes the problem is the Polylang.

    If I deactivate it, with the updated X Theme, everything looks good and not messy like before with the old X Theme.

    I have a minor problem with photos that are not showing on the posts, but I think this is happening because of a the new directories.

    So the only solution is to turn off the Polylang? It would be very bad for me…

    Do you think that there could be a solution?

    Do you want the credentials for the http://nox1.gr/streetmodebu to see it further?

    To remind you the problem, when I want to edit the page “Street Mode Festival — Front Page” the Preview Changes Button goes to other page…

    I can give the credentials in a private reply.

    Hi there,

    You can try installing a backup plugin such as BackupBuddy, but I do recommend the All in one migration plugin and export and download your site as a whole. Which later you can import back.

    Thanks!

    Hello There,

    Thanks for the updates! Just for future topics, self responding or bumping your post pushes it back in our Queue system so it takes longer to respond to.

    Could you please update the username and password? The one you gave in your previous reply is not working for us. Please double check it.

    Thank you very much.

    Hi there,

    Sorry, I think I was replying from your previous comment. Thanks for the login, it works.

    Though, been reading the discussion but not sure what is the button that leads on another page. Editing that page only leads to visual composer content (but no visual composer) and there is no button. Would you mind providing a video recording of the issue?

    Thanks!

    Hi there,

    Yes, it’s because of the Polylang plugin. Turning this option off should fix it

    The front page URL contains the language code instead of the page name or page id

    But, your home page’s URL will go to have page name/slug. It’s what Polylang plugin is lacking, the ability to forward page name/slug using query_var. It’s purely dependent to URL structure, it should at least delegate the page name/slug to the query_var and global query when it comes to home page without slug. You should contact the plugin author 🙂

    Thanks!
