Theme Panel Does Not Appear To Be Working

Hi,

I have tried to fix this myself a few times with no success.

So the TagDiv Composer appears to be working alright for the most part. Especially when it comes to editing pages, home or otherwise. While I cannot seem to load some of the demo pages, I can at least use the composer to get a look I am relatively happy with.

Except, I absolutely despise the footer and header. I wanted to change them, which I am told I can do in the Theme Panel. But every time I do, with or without a demo installed, nothing works. It’ll say it installed once I save it. Even show the change took place in the theme panel. But if I go back, it’s set right where it was before I set it before.

I cannot even upload one from the cloud to replace them. The same ones remain, never changing.

In fact, almost everything I do in the Theme Panel is not applied to the front end of the site. Everything is usually going to convert right back to where it was before I changed it. Seriously, nothing ever changes in there. I am not sure why the Theme Panel is not working, so I’d love any ideas on how I can fix it.

I have tried removing cache stuff and everything one would normally assume. But for the life of me, I cannot seem to fix this.

Hello!

The Theme Panel is useful for default templates. We recommend to use cloud/PRO templates in order to have the possibility to edit them with the TagDiv Composer which contains a lot of functions and features, please check our tutorial here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-tutorial/

Thank you!

While I am able to use the TagDiv Composer just fine, it will not let me edit the headers or footers. It tells me I must use the theme panel for this.

I’ll then use this to establish a header or footer from the cloud, but it won’t ever work once I set it. On top of that, I’ll add an entire homepage from the cloud but it will still keep the same header and footer from the default version on EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM. Never once changing site-wide.

Also, when I edit single posts with the TagDiv Composer, it only wants to work for one post and instead goes back to the default format for the rest of the posts. Even when I set the design for global use.

There are some designs I cannot even use because it interferes seemingly with the default header, so they just won’t upload. Only the ones without needed major headers/footers are even an option to use for me.

There must be something I can set or fix. None of the tutorials on the page you sent helps with my specific issue sadly

Hello!

You can install and assign a cloud header and footer template. But, you should make it global from the Cloud Templates.
Make a test and deactivate ALL plugins except tagDiv ones, also if you are using a cache plugin, deactivate it, clear all cache and let me know the results!

Was this issue solved? We’re having the same problem …

Nope. Still having an issue, and none of what they referenced will work.

But I am going to try to fix something in the XMLRPC territory too. That can affect a lot of stuff, even stuff it’s not supposed to. Like quite literally not allowing cloud stuff to connect to the site and remain there, for instance. A few other themes did the same sort of thing to me.

The Footer thing is probably the biggest pain in the a** though. Let me know if you figure it out.

Why can’t we use the theme panel to edit headers and footers? Why is the option even on the theme panel if it refuses to update? The square just turns for an hour. Why?
