    I installed Total and up until version 1.1.6.7, everything worked fine. I have a child theme of Total I created to make edits to and it has worked out great with all updates.

    I just installed the 1.1.7.0 update and all of my header, menus, widgets, layouts… really everything, it messed up now. I’m wondering if anyone has an insights.

    Here’s the staging area I’m playing with this in and it showcases the current problem:

    There are some changes like change in HTML markups, change of jquery code in our latest updates so you would have to copy the files again in your child theme and re add your customization.

    Would all of my current customizations still apply in their current form? I don’t want to copy everything in and then find out it’s still broken with my current css changes.

    Better way to ask this question: If I copy all of my current CSS modifications and then install the theme update and a new child theme, will I be able to then go to my new child theme, paste the old CSS updates and get the same results?

    Hi,

    I am not sure that every thing will work fine. I suggest you to create a new child theme and implement the changes with one file at the time to find out whether it work or not.

    Better would be do the modification once again from scratch.

    Thanks
