Troubleshooting and FAQs
Q: The header still shows the old menu after saving, what should I do?
A: Clear any caching plugins and refresh your browser. Confirm you removed the original Menu block and saved the template.
Q: Why can’t I access the Appearance > Editor section in my WordPress Dashboard?
A: The Appearance > Editor section is only available for block-based themes (e.g., Twenty Twenty-Five). If you’re using a classic theme like the BuddyBoss Theme, this section will not be visible.
