The latest WordPress update messed up my website

  • I am not a programmer, and I don’t know how to solve this issue with my website. After the latest update everything has changed on my website. It has some white background, the menu color has changed, there is no image on single post pages. The website used to be a full width, but now it has borders.
    Please help!!!

    clear the cache for autopmiize and any other caching plugin you might be using.

    earlier today, I deactivated all the plugins and checked the website, the only thing that was back to normal was the menu colors, they’re supposed to be red

    What did you update? WP or WP and the theme? You also seem to have something called “foobox” that’s also combining CSS.

    I didn’t update manually, friday I uploaded some pictures and checked everything was working. When I came back on Monday, the website was messed up. I checked there was a 4.6 wordpress update. I thought that would be the problem, cuz no one did anything on the weekend. The foobox is for my gallery page

    I’m wondering what’s combining your CSS:
    <link rel="stylesheet" id="spacious_style-group-css" href="https://activemotorwerks.com/wp-content/plugins/bwp-minify/min/?f=wp-content/themes/spacious/style.css,wp-content/themes/spacious/css/dark.css,wp-content/themes/spacious/genericons/genericons.css,wp-content/plugins/simple-lightbox/client/css/app.css,wp-content/plugins/youtube-embed-plus/styles/ytprefs.min.css,wp-content/plugins/add-to-any/addtoany.min.css" type="text/css" media="all">

    You might check with the theme developers at https://themegrill.com to see why your customization is gone.

    Ok, thank you! I will check with them and let you know.

    Have you been writing CSS style changes directly into the theme? If so these changes can be blown away in an update. All style changes should be made through a child theme of the theme you intend to use.

    The syntax for your permalinks should be:
    https://guitarist.com/blog/%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%/

    If it is already like this then I would check your redirects to see if you have any redirect loops created from switching your permalinks back and forth.
