If you work with a child theme, you have to update these files too. I had a similar issue with fully blank pages.

Thanks – that did the trick! Perhaps not related, but we’re now unable to upload media – the process just never finishes (and I/O goes through the roof in cpanel while this is happening).

Any thoughts? We’ve updated all of our plugins and disabled them all as well hoping one was the culprit.

you call this a site ? https://jahliveradio.com/

I am not happy with the update, because I had tons of custimizations, variables, etc. !!!

Do you mena this |To update from version 4 please run this update script. Note: please backup your site before updating!|

i did and its not working

Did you run the dbase updater after install?

Then you will need to redo your homepage and possibly reset your sidebar widgets.

Yeah, I have the same question, did you update anything?

my bbpress is messed up after 6.0 update…

isn’t 6.0 supposed to be better? it messed everything up.

Make sure you upgrade per official docs:

Right .. well it’s a new theme not a dot update; all the grids, layouts, images CHANGED.

You need to regenerate your thumbnails to fit new layout, hence all the resize image errors seen in the GTMetrix check. Also need to update any tagdiv plugins, clear server side cache if using one, etc.

Optimize that one image which is 23KB too large (see the report link for which one).

When you change themes you need to regenerate thumbnails to fit the new modules/layouts/sizes.

Theme can’t do that for you, unfortunately.

Also this may help: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/

the problem is that since yesterday when updated the theme, the only thing that changed was the theme.

No images have been added so far.

I had the same questions as well. Wondering what the major differences between the two themes are as they stand going forward? Will NewsMag be updated? What features can we expect to come to NewsMag?

I found that you have to replace all shortcodes since in v6 they are gone and are placed with simple HTML blockquotes. I had to run search/replace on the database to get all shortcodes replaced with proper HTML tags.

Also, I found during upgrade you will most likely need to “import” dummy content but without content. So it imports settings, otherwise it looks like crap.

Typography is also gone, it’s not imported automatically even if you use their v4 to v6 upgrade. All fonts reset to default.

If you’re using child theme from v4, you must replace top portion of the functions.php, it changed and will cause issues. Just compare new v6 child functions.php and replace your old default part at the top with the new code.

Same goes for header.php and footer.php, they’ve made changes so you need to make sure if you have customer header.php and footer.php in your child theme that you compare these files to v6 files and update necessary code to match v6. They are different from v4, you’ll get blank screen.

Hey ChrisS,

this is nonsense. Also major version updates have to work without changing the whole site manually. You might not
benefit from new features without changing something, but the site must not be broken!

Also, there must be no obligation to delete and install something in a specific order, in order to get things working.

And it must not be necessary to switch the theme to the default one in order to upgrade the VC settings which otherwise are producing an error.

Sorry, but the code just has to take care of that stuff. In good programming.

Rolf

Again, this is a major UPGRADE — this means new grid, new options, new code, new features, new options in panel for images, new tools for sticky sidebar. Hence the version number jump. It’s NOT an “update” to old version. It’s a brand NEW theme, so obviously some things won’t work moving to new version — note the “changelog” in the download — which you should *ALWAYS* read before updating ANY theme with WordPress.

For those who can’t find my “sticky” guide to updating, note at the TOP of the forum, there are couple of posts that “stick there” — including my little guide to WordPress optimization; as well as “how to move to another theme” — which is based on 9 years of suffering WP updates and is the “safe” way to do this process.

Again … this is a major UPGRADE … not a minor dot update. As with all MAJOR changes, you WILL need to make changes to your site to work with what is new. An old module that fit old layout won’t work with new layout as sizes are different, etc.

Give them a couple of days to shore up the documentation for new version.

You are under *no* obligation to update/upgrade your site — it’s not necessary ever — only do so if you want all the new features. Updating just for sake of there being an update doesn’t make sense unless you weigh the risks and benefits of doing so and have time to adjust site for what had CHANGED with NEW VERSION.

This may not help anybody, but just adding some input for those who might be totally freaking out right now 🙂
