[Support request] Dark Circles

[Vladimir]

Hi,

Can you help me get rid of these dark circles: https://share.getcloudapp.com/jkuOnLev
I just want it to look like your original theme and I don’t know why these dark circles are there.

Hi Vladimir,

That’s the “more” button for that Template. It looks odd though from your site. They should look like this: https://share.getcloudapp.com/9ZuzNQgq

Have you made any changes to these buttons?

If not, can you provide the link to the site in question for reference?

The website is here: http://vladimircukdev.wpengine.com/ I did not make any changes to the template. Yes, I know it should look like this: https://share.getcloudapp.com/9ZuzNQgq

Can you please help me fix it.

[Fernando]

I see.

1. Go to the Front Page, and edit it.
2. Edit the Buttons.
3. Set a smaller font size. Example: https://share.getcloudapp.com/Z4umw7gQ
4. Set the colors as well. Example https://share.getcloudapp.com/llug4Erz

Let us know how it goes.

I tried your instructions and font reduction works on one button I tried: https://share.getcloudapp.com/2Nu6rmJE
but the background is already set to white on the button, so I can’t control it.

I also noticed that this is a global problem on all buttons (just scroll down, look at footer, and go to other pages on https://vladimircukdev.wpengine.com/) so this is a GLOBAL problem. Your instructions show how to fix one button and there is just too many buttons in these theme to fix them individually.

I am giving you login below so you can fix them all at once on yourself. This is development server and backed up already so don’t worry about breaking things.

I see.

The issue stems from your other plugin, Genesis Blocks.

It’s CSS is causing a conflict. The CSS from it is overriding CSS from GenerateBlocks.

Can you try disabling it to test?

[Vladimir]

This is great discovery you did. Yes, I disabled that plugin and how it looks like your old theme.
Who put Genesis blocks in there, and do I need it for your theme to work correctly? Is Genesis Blocks installed by default by WordPress? I don’t remember putting it in there.

[Fernando]

I see. Glad it’s resolved now.

It shouldn’t be added automatically by WordPress or GeneratePress. Perhaps you already had that plugin before?

[Vladimir]

I think it was added by WPEngine as they own Studio Press and the plugin is the product of Studio Press. I am hosting with WPEngine. Ok – so do you think I can delete this plugin?

[Fernando]

I see.

Are you using it anywhere on your site? If not, then you can delete it.

The template you’re using solely relies on GP and GenerateBlocks.

[Vladimir]

OK. Will delete it then. Closing ticket. Thank you for fantastic diagnosis and support.

[Fernando]

You’re welcome, Vladimir!
