Big problem on home page

Hi, I’ve updated to Newspaper 6 last night.
I have a big problem with my home page, maybe related with Cache Plugin (I use W3 Total Cache).
When I look at the homepage as an administrator, it works fine. But when I look at it as a normal user (so without excluding the W3 plugin) the page loses its style, and it becomes a mess. It seems that it tries to use the mobile menu instead of the desktop one.
I’ve tried to deactivate W3, but nothing changed.
I’ve tried to delete the homepage and create a new one, but nothing changed.
I’ve tried to create another page with the same blocks of the homepage, but with a different name, and this one works fine even with the cache plugin, but when I change its name and I try to make it the home page, everything comes back to the same problem.
Any ideas?
My homepage is here: http://www.cinquecosebelle.it

Here is the same page located in a different position, and here it works: http://www.cinquecosebelle.it/prova/

Hi,

Please make sure that you update the theme properly using this guide – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ as I have checked your site and it appears version 4 – http://screencast.com/t/bHtjEKdLn1i Also update the plugins that come with the theme’s files from the /plugins folder and run the script like it is suggested in the documentation(it will import settings, rename shortcode..). Please note that Newspaper 6 is a new theme so old files customization, custom css will not work anymore so you will have to customize it again, it is not necessarily to update the theme gradually(question 2). Also you will have to re-add the widgets to your sidebars as they will become inactive.

Thanks!

I’ve followed all your tutorial and run the script two times. I think it’s a different problem.
When I open the homepage as an administrator, I get this code in the source:
<!–

Theme: Newspaper by tagDiv 2015
Version: 6.3.2 (rara)
Deploy mode: deploy

–>
So the theme is updated. But when I open the same page as a normal user, so a page that is cached, it uses the old code. I’ve deactivated again W3 plugin and installed WP Super Cache, but nothing changed.
Maybe I have to delete all the W3 folder?

Hi,

I think that it is not be enough just to delete W3TC folder/plugin if you have set it not only for page cache like we recommended. Please try these steps to remove it – http://journalxtra.com/wordpress/uninstall-w3-total-cache-proper/

Thanks!
