[Resolved] Masonry option is not working

[Deepa]

I have a basic blog roll on the home page and the moment I select show posts in masonry, the home page blanks out.

I attempted inactivating all the plugins and activating one at a time. No luck.

Hi there,

Is that only happening in the Customizer? When it happens, are there any errors in the “Console” tab when you right-click + Inspect the page?

[Deepa]

I have only tried the customizer. Is there another way to try it ? I don’t see any errors in the console when I inspect on Chrome. I don’t have other browsers.

Can you send me the dashboard admin access to take a look?

You can send the dashboard access using Account Issue here:

Please include the following information:
– The URL of this topic.
– Login URL.
– Username and password.

Please disable all plugins except GP Premium.

Thanks!

You have these functions added in the theme’s function.php file:

function create_copyright() {
$all_posts = get_posts( 'post_status=publish&order=ASC' );
$first_post = $all_posts[0];
$first_date = $first_post->post_date_gmt;
_e( 'Copyright © ' );
if ( substr( $first_date, 0, 4 ) == date( 'Y' ) ) {
echo date( 'Y' );
} else {
echo substr( $first_date, 0, 4 ) . "-" . date( 'Y' );
}
echo ' <strong>' . get_bloginfo( 'name' ) . '</strong> ';
_e( 'All rights reserved.' );
}
add_filter( 'generate_blog_masonry', function( $default ) {
    if ( is_tag() && 'page' === get_post_type() ) {
        return 'true';
    }

    return $default;
} );

add_filter( 'generate_blog_columns', function( $default ) {
    if ( is_tag() && 'page' === get_post_type() ) {
        return true;
    }

    return $default;
} );

Is the issue fixed if you remove them?

[Deepa]

I just removed the function and saved it. Went to customizer to check masonry option and still the same issue.

[Leo]

I still see this function inside the function.php file:

That file should look exactly the same as this:

[Deepa]

HiI don’t see the function anymore. Can you refresh your screen may be ?

[Leo]

It’s definitely still there:

[Deepa]

OK. I removed that function too and matched it with your git file. Exact same code with 97 lines. Still no luck.

[Leo]

Have you modified any other theme’s or plugin’s files in any other ways?

[Deepa]

No. The only thing I attempted was to add a footer that we reverted. All plugins other than GP are inactive anyway.

[Tom]

Hi there,

You’ve removed the wp_footer() function from the footer.php file: https://github.com/tomusborne/generatepress/blob/2.3.2/footer.php#L61

Without that function, no theme or plugin can add javascript to your site.

[Deepa]

Thanks a lot Tom and Leo. It works.

[Tom]

Glad we could help 🙂
