Pro update has disappeared my Sidebars

Upgraded my themeco Pro theme and now my sidebars have disappeared

when I deactivate root light-dark (see screenshots) the sidebars return

What to do about this? Running this js reveals the sidebars -

document.querySelector(':root').style.colorScheme = 'normal';

Hey @brocknessmonster,

We need to know if this issue is caused by Pro so please confirm if the following tests has already been done first.

  1. Testing For Theme Related Issue
  2. Testing For Plugin Conflict
  3. Theme Update
  4. Child Theme
  5. Css/Js Customization
  6. Disabling Cache

If those tests are done, please provide staging access to your site in a Secure Note and we’ll investigate.

  • Staging WordPress URL
  • Admin username and password

You can find the Secure Note button at the bottom of your posts.

Thanks.

To be clear the text and everything in the sidebar widgets is still there. It’s just white text on a white background.

Switching from my child theme to the Pro theme does not affect the sidebar text color. Switching to Twenty Twenty-Five completely disappears the sidebars. Restoring the child theme restores the sidebars but the text is white on white background.

This issue started yesterday after I updated Pro.

We’ll release a fix in the next point release. In supporting light-dark as a color value, we added ‘color-scheme’ to the :root as it was required. We will keep the default as normal and setup a control to manually change that. Have a great day.
