Same settings work on pages but messed up on homage

I’m seeing something similar. I’ve added a slider block to a test page and it works using Spectra 2.10.3, but when I add the same block to my home page, it doesn’t work.

However, if I downgrade Spectra to version 2.8.0, it works on the home page as expected.

Hi @ldms020255,@ericfri!

Sorry for the inconvenience caused to you.

I am not able to replicate the issue on my installation. I request you open a support ticket from here:https://wpspectra.com/support/ so that our support dev can help better.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Have a nice day!

dude you are life saver @ericfri. Actually i was on 2.0.13 and upgraded to 2.10.3 and then downgraded to 2.8. Homepage is rendering fine now! Even though it’s still a little bit off but definitely much better.

Thanks again!

I think I figured out the issue. I was adding the Spectra blocks in my template, as I’m use FSE. Once I moved the blocks over to the page and out of the template, the blocks once again worked with 2.10.3.

Hi @ericfri how to “move blocks over to the page”? So per your suggestion, I set the page which is rendering fine to be “homepage” (via Settings -> Reading -> Use static page as homepage). but it’s still off.

ok I solved it by writing some nginx rewrite rule to make the homepage render a static page without changing url. Not optimal and might have some drawbacks but that’s all i can do now.

After I set a static page, I copied/pasted the blocks from the “Frontpage” template to the new static page I created. Once the blocks were moved out of the template and into the actual page, things worked just fine. Originally, my entire home page was created in the Frontpage template and I didn’t have a page at all, that’s when things didn’t work.

Hi @ericfri, @ldms020255,

Sorry for the inconvenience caused to you.

Our dev team has replicated the issue and working on it. We will release an updated version of the plugin as soon as it is done.

Have a nice day!
