    Hi Lois-

    Generally speaking, the PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT error means that the backup archive was somehow corrupt.

    We might be able to determine what went wrong based on the archive log on your main site. Navigate to Total Upkeep > Tools > Logs and look for the log file with a name like archive-XXXXX.log and the timestamp corresponding to when you took the backup.

    We’re looking for the last few lines of that log, where you should see a message like Backup complete! or else find some evidence of errors that happened during the backup process. If you can paste those log entries here, we can investigate further and get you all fixed.

    Hi Cheryl-

    I tried to take a look at the site you sent over, but for me it just goes to the DreamHost default page. It’s tough to say what might be going on with your image without taking a look at it. Can you double-check the URL for your staging site and reply so we can take a look for you?

    When you say “header image,” are you working on your Logo, or the background image, or possibly the image at the top of the homepage?

    in reply to: How does the rest API cache work? #32195

    Hi Gregorio-

    The REST API Cache works in very much the same way as the Page Cache, in that once a REST request has been served, the response is stored in the Page Cache storage so that it can be served again without processing the request via PHP and Database queries.

    We’re still working on the documentation for this feature, but if you have any issues or specific questions we’re happy to help in the meantime.

    Hi Cole-

    There’s two likely settings that might be the culprit for the issue you described. First, check Performance > Page Cache and make sure that Don’t cache pages for logged in users is checked. Then, check Performance > Minify and make sure that Disable minify for logged in users is checked.

    Once you’ve checked those, make sure to purge all your caches and you should be able to use the Divi editor again.

    in reply to: How to insert a tag before #32191

    Hi Diya-

    Thanks for the question, this is a really common question for new WordPress users. There are a few ways to add scripts to your site, but you should not try to do it by modifying the theme files directly. The main reason I say that is because whenever you update your theme, your modifications will be overwritten.

    Probably the easiest way to accomplish this is to install the Insert Headers and Footers plugin, which is trusted by over 1 Million websites. Once you’ve installed and activated that plugin, you’ll find a new menu under Settings, and you can simply paste your code into the Scripts in Footer section, which will insert it just above the </body> tag.

    Hi Kachi-

    If the problem is only occurring on the purchase page, you could add that page to the Never Minify The Following Pages field in the Performance > Minify menu, or add the JavaScript file itself to the Never minify the following JS files.

    Hi Emily-

    Using the background rather than an actual image shouldn’t have any effect on SEO or loading time, especially for images that are mostly decorative in nature. I wouldn’t recommend using this method for images that are relevant to the content, because background images don’t have alternative text for accessibility and SEO.

    For images that do have semantic importance, I’d recommend trying out some other design techniques so that the scaled image doesn’t look so out-of-place. For example you can add a subtle drop-shadow:

    Hi Emily-

    I checked out your blog page, but it doesn’t look like any posts are published so I wasn’t able to see exactly what you mean by “hanging above,” but in the Florentine Theme, you’ll need to use Custom CSS to modify the blog page.

    Since the last time this thread was updated, we have released a new Theme called Crio that gives you a lot more control over the appearance of your Blog page without using code.

    That being said, we’re happy to help you create some Custom CSS for your theme if you can describe what you’re going for with the background and provide a link so we can take a look for you.

    Hi Subhrangsu-

    The JavaScript files inside your /wp-content/cache/minify/ directory are actually the minified and combined versions of the JavaScript for your entire site, so this warning is likely coming from another plugin or possibly even your theme.

    The warning that’s being thrown on your site specifically comes from a library called jQuery Waypoints – v2.0.2.

    I did a quick search of the plugins available on the WordPress Repository, and the most common plugins that are still using this library are Premium Blocks for Gutenberg and PT Addons for Elementor.

    If you’re not using one of those plugins, it’s possible that you may need to empty your cache after you update all of your plugins to the most recent version to rebuild the minify cache.

    Hi David-

    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Due to the very different ways that Elementor and the Post and Page Builder structure their pages, there’s not really an “easy” way to convert between them. You’d need to redesign each page using BoldGrid blocks and copy-and-paste your content from one to the other.

    Hi Steven-

    The BoldGrid Theme Framework comes pre-installed with the popular Google Fonts library since all of those fonts are licensed to be used for free for any website. If you have a website license for Another Typewriter, I recommend checking out the plugin Use Any Font which will let you upload your font and use it directly in the BoldGrid Customizer, just as if it were built-in.

    That plugin also works with Elementor as well, so it might solve your immediate problem without changing your whole workflow.

    Hi Lindsey-

    Judging from the error I can see on your site, some of the files are missing from Total Upkeep. To fix this, you should delete the plugin and reinstall it fresh.

    The best way to do this is to check the email address for your Admin user, where you should find an email that will contain a link you can use to access your site with the plugin disabled. If you can find that (be sure to check your Spam folder), you can log in, deactivate the plugin, and then reinstall it from the WordPress Plugin repository.

    If you can’t find the email, or if you don’t have access to the email account for your Administrator user, you can also use these instructions to disable the plugin with FTP or your web host’s file manager, or you can use these instructions to disable the plugin via the SSH command line.

    Hi Nancy-

    This is an older post, but recently a similar bug has cropped up and it sounds like it’s affecting you.

    Rather than uploading a blank image, I recommend using a little bit of Custom CSS until our developers can fix the issue for you.

    Navigate to Customize > Advanced > Custom JS & CSS and paste this line into your Custom Theme CSS:

    body.custom-background { background-image: none !important; }

    Hi Nils-

    I’m sorry to hear that the issues came back even after moving the site. Is the error still the same as before, that the memory limit was exceeded? Disabling W3TC shouldn’t be a memory-intensive task, so I’d still recommend checking out the rest of the site to see what’s taking up so much memory.

    That being said, here’s what you should do to disable the plugin manually.

    First, I highly recommend placing your CloudFlare into Development Mode so that you can be sure any errors you might see are not related to the CDN.

    Once you have CloudFlare in Development mode, follow this procedure:
    1. Purge all caches
    2. Deactivate and Delete Plugin
    3. Check .htaccess File (make a backup)
    W3TC will create many directives in .htaccess file to control the caching behavior. Each section will start and end with comments like “#BEGIN W3TC Page Cache core” and “#END W3TC Page Cache core”.
    Ensure that no residual entries are left over in your .htaccess file after deleting the plugin.
    4. Delete the following files and folders inside wp-content:
    – cache folder
    – w3tc-config folder
    – object-cache.php (if exists)
    – advanced-cache.php (if exists)
    – dbcache.php (if exists)
    – upgrade folder
    – delete w3-total-cache folder in wp-content/plugins/ (if exists)
    5. Delete Cached Files from CDN
    Besides deleting all the relevant files, if you use CDN then ensure to purge the cached content from your CDN. This is necessary when you enabled minify option in W3TC settings. You should delete the minified and combined scripts and CSS files from your CDN server to avoid the site breaking on the browser.

    Hi Steven-

    You can access your staging sites in your BoldGrid Central account at this address:
    https://www.boldgrid.com/central/cloud-wordpress

    Make sure to log in with the same email you use for your InMotion Hosting account. Keep in mind your InMotion account includes premium access to all of our plugins, but not the Crio Premium theme, although you can use the free version of Crio.

    I’m not completely sure what you mean by, “Do I just get a Avatar plug-in to load image into the BLOG?” By default, WordPress uses a system called Gravatar for avatars, although there are plugins that let you use custom avatars without connecting to the third-party service.

    Hi Adrian-

    I’m sorry to hear about the trouble getting to your premium features of Crio. I did check on the site you mentioned, and it looks like all of your subscriptions are on the same key.

    The other step you’ll need is to make sure that the Crio Premium extension plugin is active and installed on your sites. You can download the plugin from your BoldGrid Central account here: https://www.boldgrid.com/central/plugins

    Or you can download the extension directly from this link.

    Hi Elisabeth-

    I checked out your site and it looks like you’re running several versions behind the current version of Grid One. The current version is 1.25.5.

    If your site isn’t showing an update available, you can download the theme directly from this link and upload it to your site to make sure you’re on the latest version.

    Hi Steven-

    Haha! Yeah, I get that a lot with such a famous namesake.

    The BoldGrid Theme Framework comes pre-installed with the popular Google Fonts library since all of those fonts are licensed to be used for free for any website. If you have a website license for Another Typewriter, however, I recommend checking out the plugin Use Any Font which will let you upload your font and use it directly in the BoldGrid Customizer, just as if it were built-in.

    That plugin also works with Elementor as well, so it might solve your immediate problem without changing your whole workflow.

    Sizing images is also pretty easy. You simply use our drag-and-drop interface to modify your image size:
    Resizing an image in the Post and Page Builder

    We recommend weForms as our forms plugin of choice, but you can use any forms plugin you’re comfortable with. A new BoldGrid Inspirations site includes several pre-made weForms forms for you to choose from or modify, already configured with the contact information you enter when you go through the sitebuilding wizard.

    Sidebars are handled in the Theme Customizer, where you’ll find all of WordPress’s widgets available for you to use, as well as some specialized ones we include in the BoldGrid Theme Framework.

    InMotion is one of our closest hosting partners, and your subscription there already includes BoldGrid’s Premium products (other than the Crio SuperTheme).

    Hi Steven-

    Thanks for the question! I’ll do my best to answer everything for you.

    1. Do you do plug-ins or page builder or site builder

    Actually, all three. Our “Site-Builder” is a plugin called BoldGrid Inspirations. Install this plugin on a brand-new site to choose one of BoldGrid’s themes and starter content set, along with all of BoldGrid’s other plugins and working contact forms by weForms.
    Our Post and Page Builder plugin then lets you create your pages by using our professionally designed library of layouts to quickly build your pages, and get fine-grained control over every design aspect of your pages.
    Our other plugins include BoldGrid Easy SEO and Total Upkeep to complete the BoldGrid suite.

    2. What is difference with BoldGrid vs. Elementor or Brizy

    Elementor and Brizy are both “Front-end” editors, while BoldGrid’s editor is “back-end” (although it is WYSIWYG). The biggest difference between the Post and Page Builder and other builders is the enormous library of professionally designed “blocks.” These aren’t like the blocks in other builders, like paragraph, button, image or other primitive elements (although you can use those too). BoldGrid’s block library is full of layouts for different sections of your site, like pricing tables, calls-to-action, video embeds, and many others.

    3. I assume you use WooCommerce or what other?

    Yes, BoldGrid’s suite of plugins and themes is compatible with WooCommerce, or any other WordPress e-commerce solution you’d like to use.

    For you, I’d highly recommend trying it out in our Cloud WordPress system, which lets you create testing WordPress websites in our cloud. That way you can try it easily to see how you like it without making any changes to your website. If you create something you’d like to keep, you can easily use Total Upkeep to migrate your Cloud site to your host.

    Hi Ali-

    I’m sorry to hear about the error, I can see from the screenshot that it was very destructive to your site. Are you able to provide the full error message from the 500 you received so we can investigate for you?

    In the meantime, you should try clearing all caches and check your manual minify settings to make sure they’re still accurate after updating your plugins, if you’re using manual minify.

    Hi Emily-

    Depending on the screen size, I can see what you mean. On my large monitor, the image looks great, but as the screen gets smaller I can see the borders above and below the image form as the text grows larger than the image size. That’s because the image will always resize to preserve the aspect ratio of the original one to avoid distorting the image.

    One way you can get around this is to use the image as a background for the right-hand side, rather than as an actual media file. First, add the background to the section:
    The change background control

    Then, use the Advanced Control to add 100% padding to the top and bottom of the section. That should make the image take up the full space at every screen width.

    Hi Peter-

    We can use some screen-width media queries to adjust the breakpoint where the hamburger is displayed. In my testing, your menu splits into two lines at the 1200-pixel mark, so you can use this code in your Customize > CSS/JS Editor menu:

    @media only screen and (min-width: 768px) {
    .standard-menu-enabled label[id$=-menu-btn] {
        position: relative;
        left: 0;
        top: 1px !important;
        display: -ms-flexbox;
        display: flex;
        -ms-flex-item-align: end;
        align-self: flex-end;
        white-space: nowrap;
        overflow: hidden;
        cursor: pointer;
        -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0,0,0,0);
        z-index: 2;
    }
    .standard-menu-enabled input:checked~.sm-clean, .standard-menu-enabled input:not(:checked):not(.hidden)~.sm-clean {
    	display: none;
    	}
    }
    @media only screen and (min-width: 1200px) {
    .standard-menu-enabled label[id$=-menu-btn] {
        position: absolute !important;
        top: -99999px !important;
    	}
    .standard-menu-enabled input:checked~.sm-clean, .standard-menu-enabled input:not(:checked):not(.hidden)~.sm-clean {
    	display: flex;
    	}
    }

    Hi Peter-

    The first thing to check is to make sure that the Crio Pro extension plugin is installed and activated. You can download it directly from this link.

    If you’ve got that installed, the next most common cause is that your Crio License is associated with a different BoldGrid Connect API key than the one in use on your site. If that’s the case, reach out to our premium support team so we can investigate, and if necessary, combine your licenses.

    Hi Peter-

    I just wanted to add one more thing- our developers just let me know that this issue is slated to be fixed in the next release of the Crio theme, so once we fix that you may need to go back and remove the Custom CSS.

    Hi Peter-

    Thanks for the question, it was really cool to see that the inventor of the word “blog” is using our theme!

    The discrepancy you’re seeing is a 15-pixel margin on the left side of the title. To solve it globally, you can use Custom CSS to double the padding on the article itself. Navigate to Customize > CSS/JS Editor and add the following rule:

    .article-wrapper {
        padding-left: 30px !important;
    }
    

    After you make this change, you may need to remove the custom padding you added to your individual page.

    You can use your BoldGrid purchases on unlimited sites within the same business. For example, you may use it on a Development, Staging, and Production site.
