 * Hi Helga, thanks so much for your response. Simone theme was originally created
   by Morten Rand-Hendriksen who was a WP trainer on Lynda.com. I was using the 
   classic editor plugin. In case it helps anyone else I used wp security health
   check to ensure my site was https. I then noticed my sidebars were not working
   properly and my hidden Menu items were no longer hidden. The sidebar widget control
   page had changed to block mode. I installed classic widgets which changed that
   back from block mode and I was manually able to fix the sidebars. I was unable
   to get Nav Menu to hide all the menu pages it had previously hidden and had to
   delete those pages. So I’m not sure what triggered the widget block mode but 
   that snuffed the sidebars and footers and probably affected Nav Menu Roles. Thank
   you for your time and the staging advice, much appreciated. H.

 * Hi Joy,
    Thanks for taking the time to reply. I haven’t upgraded to 5.0 yet, 
   since I can’t risk my site being broken just now. I am looking into changing 
   to a different theme but it’s a nuisance for small businesses to have to spend
   time doing that rather than doing business. I do think it’s irresponsible for
   WP trainers to recommend their themes and then not provide up to date info about
   them. I understand they may not want to update them but they should make that
   clear from the outset. Many wp users don’t want to be developers, I thought that
   was the point of it. The WP version is more important for security but it’s not
   problem free to change themes. Will I use WP for a new site, probably not. tmf

 * Hi Mor10,
    Thanks for your advice. I am enjoying learning using Simone theme.
   I hope you will have time to do new wp courses. Just now I am trying to locate
   the correct code to make the background of the rectangular central title box 
   virtually transparent with rounded corners. I have changed the hsla and the opacity
   in 2 places where the title box is listed but it doesn’t change despite refresh.
   Also which code for the corners, there are a lot of borders listed…
 * Thank you, not urgent.
 * tmf
