• Humbled Code Warrior,

    My name is Gabriel, I run a clothing brand called “The Vibe-Tribe Apparel” and have really messed up my live site. (steadily more so, over the course of a few days)

    Last night I took it upon myself to update my WordPress site. I know that this sometimes results in broken sites, yet I still proceeded because of how necessary it was.

    I run Gantry 5 on WordPress, and use Hydrogen as my theme. Gantry has been giving me an “update now” notification for months. I figured, “why not get rid of this yellow box at the top of my pages? maybe speed up my website?”

    HAHAHAHAHA…. yes. very funny. VERY FUNNY GABRIEL.

    Previously to this, I was experiencing a problem in Gantry. The problem was in the “menu” area, of the Gantry CMS. I saved a change regarding the dropdown width of my menu. It was set at 200px, I change it to 225px. Saved it. Went to check if it worked like I normally do…. AND BAM! the “Shop” Nav role had a dropdown arrow, I hovered over it, no dropdown appeared. I checked the WordPress “Appearance>Menu” and tried dragging all the stuff located in the dropdown out of the menu. After saving it, they re-appeared on my navigation. (WINNING, RIGHT? WRONG!)

    Every time I put them into a dropdown format. Save the changes. Check. IT DOESN’T FIX ANYTHING.

    So what does one think? “Maybe, I need to update my PHP version from 5.4 to 5.6 Like Gantry has been telling me to do for months”

    So I proceed to update all my plugins. Following typical protocol. Backing things up, etc…. There were a few marked in “Red” with warning signs to backup my database and everything. I DID NOT BACKUP MY DATABASE. I backed up my websites, through GoDaddy’s cPanel.

    After that, I proceeded to go to the cPanel and update my PHP version from 5.4 to 5.6

    I didn’t realize there were any issues with the way woo commerce was operating, until I went to do my normal routine which is releasing a product EVERY Friday. Today is Thursday, so I’m assuming you could understand why I’m fretting so much.

    That’s when I decided to change the images out of the product I just duplicated, to create a new product. As I clicked on the “Product Image” that is displayed in your site’s catalog, it brought me to a whole new interface I’ve never seen before as a “media manager”

    So I thought this was very peculiar… I continued to change the “Product Gallery” images, and as soon as I clicked on “Add product gallery images” it just redirects me to the top of the product page I’m currently on and doesn’t open the media manager.

    I went to go change the variations, as normally. I couldn’t click anything located underneath “Product Data” and NO TABS WORK. There are two tabs that moderately work, that would be:

    “Vendor” and “Policies”

    When clicked on, they delete all the other tabs from the interface and give you a barely anything to work with.

    This is what happens when you click on “Vendor”

    Now let me show you pictures of the issues with Gantry:

    I have updated everything and experienced the issues with Gantry prior to the update. Woo commerce issues were after the update.

    Nonetheless, I digress…

    I’m not religious, but I’m praying right now that someone can offer me help on this ASAP.

    Thanks in advance for reading and your help,

    Gabriel
