 * I just updated to the new version and now the customizer is not working for specific
   sites of mine now… It works on some others in the network but its pretty random…
   If I uninstall the plugin everything works perfectly again…
 * please help… I have to have it installed for security but I can’t make some updates
   now 🙁
 * Thanks for any help!!!

 * Have you check the log files to see what is causing your issue?
 * What is the difference between the sites that work and the sites that don’t work?

 * Not to sure about what the issue is… I am not advanced enough to write to or 
   fix plugins…
 * I luckily had an old 3.7.3 version on another server and had not noticed any 
   problems on there… I downgraded my new sites to that and everything works perfectly
   now…
 * So something between 3.7.3 and 3.7.5 broke the customizer for certain themes 
   but not others… Some loaded fine while others just kept constantly refreshing…
 * Wish I could be more help…

 * So the issue is with some of the themes? Is that correct?

 * Yea…
 * I was working on one of the sites in my network (i barely ever use the customizer)
   but I needed that to change someone and when I went in there it just kept refreshing
   and refreshing… I searched around online for some solutions and most people said
   to make a new folder in my wp-content folder called bad plugins and move all 
   my plugins to there…
 * Then I checked to see if the problem had gone away… luckily it had… So i started
   to add the plugins back one by one until the problem began again… in the end 
   the only plug-in left in the bad plugins folder was the all in one security and
   the site was functioning perfectly… So I went back to my old server and grabbed
   the older version and thats how I knew that would work… because it had before…
   so the bug is somewhere in there…

 * Okay we are on track to find out what the problem is. Have you tried to update
   the plugin to version [3.7.5](http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/all-in-one-wp-security-and-firewall.3.7.5.zip)?
 * If 3.7.5 works for you then we know that the latest 3.7.6 is causing the problem
   with your theme.

 * I noticed the problem in 3.7.5 and then upgraded to 3.7.6 for a hope for the 
   fix but problem was still there… was not able to check 3.7.4…

 * What are your settings? There might be just one of the settings that is causing
   this issue. Another words the plugin will still protect your site but you won’t
   be able to enable one or a few of the advance settings. That can be due to the
   fact that your current theme is not implementing the code correctly for that 
   function.
 * What I suggest is to install the latest version 3.7.6 and only enable the basic
   settings and test to see if the issue still occurs. If it doesn’t then start 
   enabling one by one the advance settings but remember to make sure you have a
   current backup just in case something goes wrong.
 * Let me know how you go.

 * Sorry thats to much work right now… I will just use the old version until there
   is a fix… I am just reporting it… It really freaked me out cause i don’t have
   a testing server and this happened on my soon to be production server so I don’t
   want to take any chances…
 * Maybe in a few days I will start to build a testing server and see if I can’t
   figure it out there and report back… Thanks
