Help! Missing Header and then ‘Invalid Value’
-
Hi Folks,
Hope someone can help with this.
Today I updated a few plugins and added some testimonials to http://martindaltonsolicitor.co.uk and somehow, inexplicably broke it!
The sites pages (not home page) should have a main menu bar across the top as per this example:http://preview.themeforest.net/item/themis-law-lawyer-business-wordpress-theme/full_screen_preview/3498596?_ga=2.154180860.511689543.1540326338-1270942322.1540326338
This banner menu has disappeared from my site. I went to Theme Options > Pages where there is a dropdown to select a specific ‘Top Menu’ which had become deselected. When I select the right menu and save the site tells me ERROR CHANGES CANNOT BE SAVED and then highlights in orange multiple places where there is an ‘invalid value’. If I try and fix these in any of the locations highlighted the site will not save or take the change.
I have tried deactivating the updated plugins in case that was the issue but to no avail.
Any help would be appreciated – I am not a website guru so plain english appreciated π

I have tried deactivating the updated plugins
Please attempt to disable ALL plugins (not only updated ones) , and use one of the default (Twenty*) themes. If the problem goes away, enable them one by one to identify the source of your troubles.
If you can install plugins, install “Health Check”: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/health-check/ On the troubleshooting tab, you can click the button to disable all plugins and change the theme for you, while you’re still logged in, without affecting normal visitors to your site.
thanks t-p in fact I did disable all the plugins as the updated ones were the only ones in use with no effect.
RE the health check will that do anything else than I have done already by disabling the plugins? With all plugins deactivated I get the same errors etc

Have you tried switching to the unedited default Theme (Twenty Seventeen, etc.) for a moment using the WP dashboard to rule out any theme-specific issue (theme functions can interfere like plugins).
Hi t-p,
sorry for the slow response – finally got to this!
I enabled the Health Check and with plugins disabled and the menu still did not seem to appear in the generic 2017 theme. The ‘Preview’ version of the theme online shows ‘parent Page’, Sub-Page etc and there was nothing in that area when I was in the Health Check mode for my site.
I looked through the other checks and the only thing I noticed was this – do you think it would have an impact on the menu:
PHP Version 5.6.36 – For best performance we recommend using PHP 7.2 or higher.
In the Theme Options > Pages I still cannot make a selection and keep getting blocked as described above. Any suggestions on how to resolve would be appreciated!
any thoughts on this anyone? π help much appreciated!
Can anyone help on this one? Im Stuck! :0

Hi Tp!
Thanks for the response. Yes I did try that but no joy – See the comment about week or so ago, sadly it didn’t work too well
I’m out of ideas, may be somebody else with more ideas chimes in.
