Hi there,

We will need to go through some debugging steps.

Have you tried activating a twenty series WP theme to see if the issue exists there?

Let me know 🙂

I downgraded to 5.4.2 and that fixed the issue. I am sure there is a conflict somewhere. I will wait for a fix. Thanks for your help.

[Leo]

No problem 🙂
