I updated WooCommerce Blocks on our site, and it broke the layouts built in Toolset Layouts for single Product pages and archives. I noticed that the WooCommerce Blocks setting screen disappears from the admin sidebar in WordPress, and moved within the main Toolset Settings area. I can only assume that the functionality that allows us to choose between the WooCommerce default template and the WooCommerce Views template is being disabled, because the setting doesn't even appear under the WooCommerce Blocks tab as seen in the attached image.
The page(s) in question can be found here: hidden link
Currently, I have the WooCommerce Blocks plugin dialed back to version 2.9.4, as this is a production site and I can't afford to have the primary means of monetization on the site looking borked.
Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.
I checked with the duplicator you shared - I installed the duplicator on my local machine and updated ALL Toolset plugins to latest version and when I visit the product pages I see its working as expected.
The header is actually being pulled in from Divi's Theme Builder. As far as I'm aware the code that exists in the weCreate Core plugin shouldn't be affecting the header and footer layouts in any meaningful way. I didn't personally write the plugin however, but I do know we've dialed back what it's accomplishing by pushing most custom functionality into the functions.php for easier use and modification.
Here's what it's currently doing, in this version of the plugin, based on what the wecreate-core.php file's comments tell me:
Ensures that the child theme's stylesheet(s) retain(s) priority over plugins and parent theme files
Hide the Toolset Types Info Table on Post Edit Screens for non-admins, based on a WP Permission
Hide Toolset's Frontend Visual Builder based on a WP Permission (we don't use this feature as we're using Divi to build pages)
Load a shortcode library with shortcodes that we use on a regular basis
Footer bar branding customizations (effectively not being used as a result of the Divi Theme Builder)
Hide WordPress Dashboard Screen Options by default that users don't use as often
Put the Yoast SEO widget below the Divi Builder editor
I wouldn't know first hand if any of these functions are causing any kind of layout conflicts, however, disabling the plugin will result in breakage because the custom styles will all have been disconnected/lose priority.
Our next level support checked the issue and found that when we disable the custom plugin "WeCreate Core" and check the header with both WooCommerce Blocks plugin version 2.9.4 and the latest stable version - the header is broken but we do not find any difference.
Having said that updating WooCommerce Blocks plugin to the latest version 3.1 makes absolutely no difference to the custom Divi header, the problem only occurs when using your custom plugin and as per our support policy we do not offer support for such custom edits as its beyond the scope of our support policy.
If you want I can offer you a brand new sandbox site where you can show me that divi header is broken using WooCommerce Blocks plugin version 3.1 but without any custom plugin added or any customization, and there is no other user reported such issue .
I'll just have to try and port the functionality that we do use on this site from the plugin into the functions.php from here. Please leave this ticket open while I troubleshoot on my end. Thank you.
You don't have to be so curt about it. I'm legitimately trying to find a solution to our problem, so if you wish to not continue with this thread, please pass this ticket along to another agent.
So I ran some tests in a completely separate staging environment with a Divi child theme that doesn't include any dependencies on the "weCreate Core" plugin. This staging environment is located at hidden link and it has the same issue even though the plugin is not installed.
Just like the IV Center site, the global header and footer areas are built in Divi's Theme Builder, and just like the IV Center site, Divi's default header area overrides the custom one I built in the Theme Builder for WooCommerce single product page and archive layouts.
In this situation, I even deleted the footer.php file from the child theme, so the footer area actually doesn't even show up.
As a reminder, this problem only occurs with WooCommerce single product layouts and archives, and does not occur on any other post type layouts built with Toolset Layouts.
Please refer to the attached image for what the header area is supposed to look like (left).
Hello there! Minesh will be on vacation for a couple of days. If you don't mind, I'll continue with you on this ticket.
The website that you have provided is not reachable for me. Check this screenshot hidden link
Can you please reproduce this issue on this test site hidden link
Please note that either Minesh or any other supporter will not provide further support if we determine that the issue is caused by a custom code. If, on the other hand, the custom code is minimal enough to demonstrate that the issue comes from Toolset we are committed to fixing it and supporting you.
