Theme update breaking layout – repair
Your theme's layout changed or broke right after an update. We find whether customisations were lost or there's a genuine incompatibility, and fix it properly.
Visual and functional breakage almost always comes from two things stacked on top of each other: WordPress’s own templates, and whatever a theme or page builder — Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder, Oxygen, Bricks, or one of several others — layered on top to produce the actual design.

Your theme's layout changed or broke right after an update. We find whether customisations were lost or there's a genuine incompatibility, and fix it properly.
Maps, video players, review widgets, payment iframes — every third-party embed tested to confirm it still actually works on your live pages.
Your page builder loads its full asset library on every page, even ones that don't use it. We scope loading to only where it's actually needed.
WordPress generates thumbnail sizes your theme no longer uses, wasting storage on every image. We remove the unused sizes and regenerate cleanly.
An embedded video isn't playing, showing a broken player, or failing only for some visitors. We isolate the actual cause and fix it.
Old-style widgets in your sidebar and footer, migrated into native blocks so they're editable the same way as the rest of your content.
Pages are showing raw shortcode text like [vc_row] instead of the layout they should. We convert the content properly so it renders without WPBakery active.
Move your WPBakery-built pages into native WordPress blocks, so your content isn't tied to a page builder plugin going forward.
Visual and functional breakage almost always comes from two things stacked on top of each other: WordPress’s own templates, and whatever a theme or page builder — Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder, Oxygen, Bricks, or one of several others — layered on top to produce the actual design. Each layer writes its own CSS, its own scripts, and sometimes its own database entries, and none of them reliably clean up after themselves. A theme update overwrites a template a builder depended on. A plugin gets deactivated but leaves its shortcode behind, rendering as visible text instead of the effect it used to produce. Two builders end up active on the same site after a redesign, each fighting the other for control of the same block.
What connects these fixes is that they require working out which layer actually produced the fault before touching anything — a broken menu could be the theme, a plugin, cached CSS, or a builder conflict, and each has a different fix. Working through it in the wrong order usually means undoing changes that didn’t help and re-breaking something that was fine. The fix is specific to the layer once it’s correctly identified, not a general clean-up.
