Dear Themeco,

I tried to update to the newest version of X, (April 9th, 2016), but upon doing so my site completely breaks! I reverted back to the old theme.

Is there a link to any information on what to do when this happens? Should I just wait for the next update and hope for the best that the next one does not break my site?

I own 3 X licenses now, one for me and two for friends that I have built sites for. I need to know what to do when an update breaks the sites.

Please let me know. Thanks.

Hey Frank,

If you’re using the old child theme structure, that could be the case. Please see https://community.theme.co/forums/topic/child-theme-updates/ for more details.

Basically, to fix this quickly, please add the code below in your functions.php

// Enqueue Parent Stylesheet
// =============================================================================

add_filter( 'x_enqueue_parent_stylesheet', '__return_true' );

Then, delete the @import line in your style.css

Hope that helps. 🙂

Please forgive the ignorance. But should the final functions.php code include all below or should any part be deleted?

<?php

// =============================================================================
// FUNCTIONS.PHP
// —————————————————————————–
// Overwrite or add your own custom functions to X in this file.
// =============================================================================

// Enqueue Parent Stylesheet
// =============================================================================

add_filter( ‘x_enqueue_parent_stylesheet’, ‘__return_true’ );

Also, do I just delete the @import line in style.css? Do I not need to replace it with anything? Thank you very much.
