Helix Ultimate - Custom styles not working after 2.2.7 update, issue present in 2.2.8

Asked by bastreri 2 months ago Last activity 2 months ago

After updating to 2.2.7, all custom styles stopped to work. Updating to 2.2.8 didnt fix the issue.

Any workaround for that?

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for contacting us. Yes. This appears to be a CSS-generation/cache issue introduced during the 2.2.7 update.

Try this workaround:

  • Go to Template Options → Advanced → SCSS.
  • Toggle Compile SCSS to CSS off, save, then enable it again and save.
  • Clear the Joomla cache, and browser cache.

Version 2.2.8 fixed Custom CSS and other Custom Code fields being stripped during AJAX saves, but it cannot automatically restore code that was already removed by 2.2.7. Restore missing CSS from a backup or template-settings export if necessary.

Recompiling the SCSS or resaving the template settings has also been confirmed as the usual workaround for inactive custom styles after this update.

-Regards.

Hello, thanks for your answer.

I already tried the SCSS off/on. Compress CSS on/off, and no luck.

The issue is not in the custom code, the issue i have is in the presets menu of the template.
I have some template styles defined, none of them use a preset, all use custom style.

If i choose a predefined template, the style is applied ok. But if i choose a custom style, my colors, fonts, etc. are not right when the page render.

All those styles are not working. All worked fine before 2.2.7 update.

Thanks
