Use New Header/Footer Builder toggle

    Regarding that toggle, which should appear in Astra Dashboard, Settings, I have a couple questions:

    1. Once toggled on in 4.5.1, is it going to be available to be toggled off? The last thing we want to happen is for that toggle to be a one-way trip, because we’ll need to refer to the old HFB during the transition.
    2. I have a separate site, which started with a version of Astra which used old HFB. But when upgraded to 4.5.1, the toggle doesn’t appear, you’re just automatically opted in to new HFB. I’d rather it didn’t do that. I’d like the toggle to be able to test it. Is there any way to get this automatic opt-not to happen?
    3. When the toggle isn’t available for any reason, is there some other way to toggle, like via editing a key file?

    In further testing with the test site, it looks to me like 4.2.2 is the last version where the toggle consistently remains. Upgrade to anything higher and it’s gone. Go back to 4.2.2, or any lower version, and it returns.

    Note: On our production site, which is 4.5.1, the toggle is there, so I can’t really explain why it remained there. What I don’t know is if it will stay there once used. This is one reason why I’m asking for an alternate means of toggling when there’s no toggle.

    Hi @bjf2000,

    Please try adding this snippet to your site

    add_filter( 'astra_is_header_footer_builder_active', '__return_false' );

    It will bring back the old Header/Footer on the Customizer. However, you won’t see the toggle on Astra Dashboard.

    I hope it will help.

    Kind regards,
    Herman ??
