Hi @sbase, just wanted to circle back to confirm things are working after the Zoom call we had to go through this. If so, would you mind marking this as resolved? Thanks!
Did you delete (or change the name of) the Contrast color in the theme? That is what is used for the background color of that submenu, and when checking our your site, it appears the var(--wp--preset--color--contrast) no longer exists. (Hence why the submenu is now transparent.)
Hi, unfortunately there are some caveats with the way WordPress handles Front/Home page templates. If you are looking to have a page on your site that displays posts, my recommendation would be to unset the (Set to Posts Page) setting first. Then, inside of your blank page, add a pattern—choosing from the Posts category, which allows you to insert the Query pattern that comes with Frost.
Frost is an experimental theme (owned by WP Engine) that requires the Gutenberg plugin and also includes that library of patterns you mentioned. Powder is a scaled back, stripped down version, meant to serve as a base theme (for child themes, forking, etc) and is one that I personally own. Powder is a fork (itself) of Frost, so there are a lot of similarities, and is also production ready.
You could simply create a page called Blog (/blog/) and add your own query loop (via pattern) into that without even needing the Settings > Reading > Posts page option set.
@helenadenley I think you may have found a bug in the theme. Can you do me a favor and go to the Site Editor > Archive template, click the Query Loop block and then in the right sidebar look for Settings > Inherit query from template and enable it? I believe this will resolve your issue with all posts showing on archive pages. LMK if this works, and if so, I’ll update the theme.
