Support » Theme: Lawyeria Lite » I keep losing my styles and images!

  • Resolved ALDesigner

    (@aldesigner)


    Used this theme to make a free site for a colleague. Everything was going swimmingly, until a month after launch. The entire theme folder reverted back to its original state, pre-edits. I lost all of the custom css and images. I uploaded them manually, which seemed to have resolved the issue, but then it occurred again. Only this theme’s folder is showing modification on the dates on which these incidents have occurred. Is this a built-in feature of the free version? Like the WP theme equivalent to a “nag screen” in free software?

    Please advise.

  • have you made edits to the style.css file, or any one of the template files?

    more than likely your theme is being updated and any changed you have made to the theme directly are being reverted. if this is the case, you need to create a child theme to prevent this from happening again.

    That was in fact the cause. One of the other 2 users, two of which are admins and one is an editor, did an “update all” for the site using our centralized WP manager. It updated all plugins and themes with one click and they failed to check if that compromised our customization.
