Salient v. > 16.1.3 Bug
Closed

Comments

  • purchasing416 started the conversation

    Updating the "Salient" theme to version 16.1.3 creates a display issue in the blog section. We see the names of WordPress users under the articles (see attachments). Usernames should not be public, and despite modifying the Meta settings, the information still appears. We performed a ROLL-BACK to avoid the issue, but we cannot keep the old version of the plugin forever.

    Hello Tahir, 

    Kindly, we will not update to version 16.2.2 of the theme, as this version intoduces the bug we are experiencing (see original ticket for details).

    To reiterate, I've attached two images indicating the differences in display when we update the plugin to Salient v. 16.2.2. We do not want to display the additonal information that CANNOT be removed regardless of the configuration modifications we perform in the backend.

    Hi there,

    Thank you for getting back to us.

    Could you please create a staging site and update the theme to the latest version so we can check this out?

    To assist you better, we'd love to have a closer look at your setup and to do this, we'll need admin login credentials (dashboard URL, username, password) to your staging site. This will enable us to conduct a more in-depth investigation of the issue based on your specific configurations. Would you mind sharing this with us? 

    If you prefer, you can safely share the access through a one-time secret note or using an access plugin such as Controlled Admin Access.

    Before you provide this information, we strongly recommend taking a backup of your site.

    If you have any concerns or questions about this process, please don't hesitate to let me know.

    We look forward to your reply.

    Thanks,

    username: client

    password: client123

    Hi again,

    Thank you for getting back to us.

    Have you tried using global sections for your blog posts? You can achieve this by setting the display location to Blog Archive Loop https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/page-builder-global-sections/.

    Try this and let us know how it goes.

    Kind regards,

  • purchasing416 replied

    We've updated the theme on the provided staging site. you are free to do what you wish with it. It serves only yu and will be destroyed when you are done with it.

    Modifying the way the Blog Post Archives is displayed could be a work around. The issue we would like addressed is why are the configurations being ignored since we updated the Theme.

    Hey purchasing416,

    It looks like your site is attempting to load the blog stylesheet from a non-standard location, which is causing the display issues:

    8583984387.png

    https://behaviour.2.webint.ca/wp-content/themes/salient/css/build/blog/nectar-blog-masonry-core.min.css (404)

    The file path which Salient should be using by default is: https://behaviour.2.webint.ca/wp-content/themes/salient/css/build/blog/masonry-core.css

    Could you enable the default WP file editor on your staging site so that I can take a look at the enqueue function within your instance to see why that path is wrong?

    Kind regards

    Hello ThemeNectar,

    Sorry for the delay. We have deactivated the DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT constant in the wp-config.php file of the staging environment. 

    As mentioned previously, this environement serves only for this debugging process. In an attempt to remove ourselves as a bottleneck, if you would like SSH access for debugging purposes, feel free to provide us with your public key.

    Hey, I've located the offending code that is enqueuing the Masonry blog stylesheet from the wrong location in your plugin called 'Headlines.'

    Here's the line that is causing the issue and should be updated to reflect the current file path of the stylesheet:

    Alternatively, deactivating the plugin will also fix the issue.

    Kind regards
