Title: AMP version breaking site Last modified: July 18, 2021 --- # AMP version breaking site * Resolved [droyed](https://wordpress.org/support/users/droyed/) * (@droyed) * [4 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/amp-version-breaking-site/) * Hi, * The AMP version of the site seems wrecked. Can you please help? * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Famp-version-breaking-site%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 14 replies - 1 through 14 (of 14 total) * [James Osborne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamesosborne/) * (@jamesosborne) * [4 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/amp-version-breaking-site/#post-14675490) * Thanks for reaching out. It looks like you’re using a theme which isn’t fully AMP compatible, resulting in the behaviour you’re experiencing on your AMP URLs. Have you tried the plugin in [reader mode](https://amp-wp.org/documentation/getting-started/reader/), while installing and activating one of the [AMP compatible themes](https://amp-wp.org/ecosystem/themes/)? * Thread Starter [droyed](https://wordpress.org/support/users/droyed/) * (@droyed) * [4 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/amp-version-breaking-site/#post-14675950) * Hi [@jamesosborne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamesosborne/) * Thanks for your message. * I have previously had issues with this plugin. And back then, I was asked to download the ‘AMP Chaplin Theme Compat’ plugin for the theme. Here’s the thread: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/site-jammed-after-downloading-this-plugin/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/site-jammed-after-downloading-this-plugin/) * Please advice. * [James Osborne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamesosborne/) * (@jamesosborne) * [4 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/amp-version-breaking-site/#post-14676022) * Indeed the plugin [compatibility fix](https://github.com/milindmore22/amp-chaplin-compatibility) provided by [@milindmore22](https://wordpress.org/support/users/milindmore22/) does address the themes primary incompatibility, the hamburger menu. Having said that you seem to have a background image and other features of this theme (or possibly active plugin) which are not AMP compatible. These are theme or plugin incompatibilities, not an issue with the AMP plugin. The AMP plugin helps users achieve AMP valid URLs by stripping out or identifying such issues. * As you may image we can’t provide solutions for third party themes or plugins other than basic fixes. I would be happy however to look at the background image which uses custom JavaScript and see if there is anything I can provide to ensure it works in AMP. Can you inform me how you added the background image, via your themes customizer? * For other incompatibilities such as any particular CoBlocks Gutenberg blocks these also seem not AMP compatible. * Thread Starter [droyed](https://wordpress.org/support/users/droyed/) * (@droyed) * [4 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/amp-version-breaking-site/#post-14676060) * Hi [@jamesosborne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamesosborne/) * Thanks for the prompt message. * I haven’t had any issues for a while and now this has begun again. So what do you suggest I do? Changing themes would mean the site may need major changes, wouldn’t it? * I must admit I don’t understand how images would wreck it 🙁 But I uploaded them the usual way via the WordPress media library. * Please advice. * [James Osborne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamesosborne/) * (@jamesosborne) * [4 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/amp-version-breaking-site/#post-14677062) * No problem at all. Did your background image work for you previously using the same theme? I don’t see any reason why it may have displayed previously and not now. I’ll check the theme myself and report back to you here with what I can determine. * > I must admit I don’t understand how images would wreck it 🙁 But I uploaded > them the usual way via the WordPress media library. * It’s not the images themselves. If the placement if images uses custom JavaScript– output on the front end of your website then this is not compatible with the AMP framework. Some optimization plugins for can result in this behavior, if not [suppressed from AMP URLs](https://i.imgur.com/as27CDV.png). It looks like this may be the case for your site. For that reason I would suggesting using plugins that are [verified as AMP compatible](https://amp-wp.org/ecosystem/plugins/). * I’ll let you know once I check the Chaplin background image. * Thread Starter [droyed](https://wordpress.org/support/users/droyed/) * (@droyed) * [4 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/amp-version-breaking-site/#post-14678375) * Hi [@jamesosborne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamesosborne/) * Thanks for your message. * I’m looking forward to hearing from you. I hope I can resolve this soon. * In the meantime, do you recommend I disable the AMP plugin? * [James Osborne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamesosborne/) * (@jamesosborne) * [4 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/amp-version-breaking-site/#post-14680056) * Thanks for your patience on this. I’ve checked the Chaplin theme and there are no issues with the background image in AMP URLs. * With that I suspect you may have some plugins or other features impacting your images.
