Title: Problems after recent theme update Last modified: August 30, 2016 --- # Problems after recent theme update * Resolved [d_3dpowen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/d_3dpowen/) * (@d_3dpowen) * [10 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-after-recent-theme-update/) * Hello, yesterday after powen lite update, my menu disappeared and the search box too. I tried to restore both but for the menu looks like it doesn’t recognize the icon with the three stripes (now I named the menu and it shows up even if it is only a workaround and the animation for the items menu doesn’t work too), and for the search box I don’t know how to get rid of it. In the personalization page the “hide search box” doesn’t set. So how can I restore the functionality of my theme? Before this update everything was working. * Thanks a lot Viewing 13 replies - 1 through 13 (of 13 total) * Theme Author [Mahvash Fatima](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mahvash-fatima/) * (@mahvash-fatima) * [10 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-after-recent-theme-update/#post-6776175) * The Menu had some bugs and we have fixed the issue. So the menu locations settings have gone. You will need to add your menu to one of the Theme Locations. - Navigate to WordPress Dashboard > Appearance > Menus - Scroll to the bottom of the menu editor window. - In the section titled Theme Locations, click the check box for the location where you want your menu to appear. - Click Save Menu once you have made your selection. * We have changed the search bar style in current version. Sometimes, when changes are made to the website, they don’t register immediately due to caching. A hard refresh will usually fix this, though occasionally completely clearing the cache is necessary. You will need to make a hard refresh. We have removed the menu animation as well. * Thread Starter [d_3dpowen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/d_3dpowen/) * (@d_3dpowen) * [10 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-after-recent-theme-update/#post-6776182) * Hello Fatima, I’ve already add the menu to the location. In my backend I can add theme location from Dashboard > Appearance > Menus and from Dashboard > Appearance > Personalize too. I’m using a child theme to avoid this problems but since you have modified the menu and the search box I think the problem is the child theme. For example I have a modified version of header.php for my purpose. Ad I noticed that in new powen lite version header.php doesn’t have a Main Nav section. In fact in my source now I see two main nav: one coming from my theme child (header. php) and the second coming from new version of the powen main theme. If I name my menu it shows up (and it is comind from my header.php child theme). If i don’t name it it doesn’t show up. Maybe is it the problem? If yes which file calls the new version of the nav menu and the search box? thank you * Theme Author [Mahvash Fatima](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mahvash-fatima/) * (@mahvash-fatima) * [10 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-after-recent-theme-update/#post-6776259) * We have moved the main nav code from header.php file to top-most.php file. You will find the top-most.php file in theme’s template-parts folder. * Your child theme’s header.php file contains main nav code and the current version of the theme contains the same main nav code in the top-most.php file as well. So there are two main navs: one is coming from your child theme’s header.php file and the other one is coming from the top-most.php file. * You will need to remove the main nav code from your child theme’s header.php file as the top-most.php file already contains the main nav code. * [kenectt](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kenectt/) * (@kenectt) * [10 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-after-recent-theme-update/#post-6776276) * I too have had problems with the menu… will try again and see how I go! The other thing to have a little problem, was that after the upgrade my slider images vanished… I have been into the set up and they are still all there. I have resaved each of these but nothing seems to have worked… * Any help would be greatly appreciated, I have spent most of the day trying to work this all out. Also I am not that great with the technical side, this is my first brave attempt. So any support is definitely appreciated. * I love this theme it is flexible and presents great options, nice creation!! * My site is [http://www.kenectt.com](http://www.kenectt.com) * Thread Starter [d_3dpowen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/d_3dpowen/) * (@d_3dpowen) * [10 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-after-recent-theme-update/#post-6776281) * Hello Fatima, thank you for the information, replacing the top-most.php and the header.php file in my child theme with the new version of powen lite gets back my menu and search bar. I have another question sorry! Now if I select top menu, the menu is showing, If I select Main Menu it doesn’t (I mean in personalize page of the theme and in the menu appareance of wordpress too). do you know why? * thank you * Theme Author [Mahvash Fatima](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mahvash-fatima/) * (@mahvash-fatima) * [10 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-after-recent-theme-update/#post-6776308) * Hello kenectt, * I have gone through your website and noticed that you have tried to make changes to the footer. The problem can arise because of making any changes to the footer. php file. Kindly do not make any changes to the original theme files. You will need to replace your theme’s footer.php file with the recent version of footer. php file. * Theme Author [Mahvash Fatima](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mahvash-fatima/) * (@mahvash-fatima) * [10 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-after-recent-theme-update/#post-6776309) * Hello d_3dpowen, * If possible, provide a direct link to your site so that I can see the source of your problem. * Thread Starter [d_3dpowen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/d_3dpowen/) * (@d_3dpowen) * [10 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-after-recent-theme-update/#post-6776327) * Hello Fatima, this is the link [link](http://goo.gl/0Mhtwn) * thanks a lot * Theme Author [Mahvash Fatima](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mahvash-fatima/) * (@mahvash-fatima) * [10 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-after-recent-theme-update/#post-6776340) * Hello d_3dpowen, * It’s not a theme related issue.
