Update messed up patterns

by robbielokeoys·3 months ago·1 reply

I have thousands of posts with custom patterns used, and since the latest update of this theme all of these patterns are now wider than the readable area, with boxes split and half missing off the page. There is apparently no method to change this other than manual editing of the width of content boxes in EVERY post in which these patterns have been used, which is just not feasible.

My only option now is to seek another theme that works.

I would not recommend this theme.
