# Settings change automatically

 * Hi there,
 * On my website for cycling cafes (“wielercafes”) I use ACF for several fields.
   I work with Elementor.
    One of them is the backgrounds of the heading on a news
   article. Second example is for the loop of these articles.
 * Since this year, unfortunately, this is no longer as it should be.
 * The layout of the backgrounds in these two examples change automatically every
   few weeks. The functions that fall under ‘Background’, such as ‘size’ and ‘repeat’
   change. As a result, the photos in the loops and in the news item are no longer
   displayed correctly. Below is an example of the loops.
 * This happens particularly in the messages from January 2022.
 * When I adjust the loops and templates slightly, reset and save again the problem
   is fixed. Yet this problem keeps recurring repeatedly for over 6 months.
 * Is there anything I can do about this?
 * Thanks in advanced.
