Block element not updating
17 replies · Started by Minhaz on November 24, 2022
Whatever editing I’m doing on my Site Title (color, text weight, text size etc.) is not updating. When I click ‘Update’, it goes without issue. But when I view the site on my browser, the change does not reflect. Only the original title styling that came with the site template persists. For example, the site title that you can see upon clicking my site link below was red in editing mode, but it’s still showing in black on the site.
Hi there,
Not sure if I fully understand.
The Site Title style isn't controlled by a block element.
Can you try the customizer options first?

Let me know :)
Thanks for responding to my concern. Please take a look at the screenshot below to see what I'm talking about. It's a block element. And it has more editing options than the customizer.
That element is actually not displaying on your live site.
Your screenshot shows that the Display Rules have not been selected.
Perhaps that's the issue?
"That element is actually not displaying on your live site."
Yes, it's the issue.
I just set the Location to 'Entire Site'. But the issue remains. :(
What are you selecting in the Element screen?

I'm selecting text
Text shouldn't be an option.
Can you show me a screenshot?
I'm looking for which kind of block element you are using or which hook:

I'm talking about the Element options as my screenshot show above:

Which Element type are you using?

I'm using Block element.
There are 10 types of Block elements as seen here:

Which type are you using?
Element type options are not same as your screenshot on my end. Btw, I selected "Block" instead of "Header" because I wanted to create a header using the Block. But now I think I may have chosen "Header". But again "Header" does not come with as many options and flexibilities as "Block". Below is the screenshot.
