NO BUG: Content in Editor Doesn't Match Content On Front-End (No Cache)

Browser: All
OS: All
URL: https://onecohope.mythicdesigncompany.com/

Weird issue I can’t seem to figure out. For some reason, only the homepage of this site is loading on the front-end. Navigating to another page via the menu or through direct URL entry just loads the content for the homepage rather than for the page I’m trying to view.

Additionally, the homepage has outdated content (I’ve updated the hero image). The content for ALL pages is showing correctly when running the Bricks Builder, but on the front-end it doesn’t load properly.

Hosting this site on Cloudways, DNS managed by Cloudflare.

List off things I’ve tried:

  • I’ve disabled all caching from Cloudflare, Cloudways, and on the site itself.

  • Turned on developer mode in Cloudflare

  • Changed Bricks CSS to External Files vs Inline and regenerated.

  • I’ve disabled all plugins and re-installed a fresh copy of Bricks.

  • Regenerated Bricks CSS multiple times.

  • Saved WP permalinks multiple times including changing permalink structure.

  • Migrated site to a LocalWP Install and retried all of the above.

  • Downgraded Bricks to an older version.

  • Contacted Cloudways to ensure Varnish cache is disabled.

What should be rendering:

EDIT: I’ve also checked all error logs, enabled WP Debug, and Reinstalled WP entirely.

My guess is that you have a Bricks template that has been accidentally set to show on every page through the conditions options.

For eg maybe you originally created this home page as a front page template, and at some point it was set to ‘global’ through the conditions, so now it’s taking over every page, even the new version of the page that is the actual home page.

Could be wrong, but it’s only thing you haven’t mentioned checking, and it if true, would be causing exactly the problem you’re seeing here.

Hi Cory,
Thanks so much for your report, and welcome to the forum!

As David already said, I would check the conditions of your templates. In addition, you can also look into your plugins and the .htaccess file to see if any redirects are created there.

Best regards,

Thanks so much for the extra set of eyes David.

I actually had checked my templates as well but what I didn’t notice was I had my footer set to “Single” so what you were describing was exactly what happened.

When I was working on the footer initially I must’ve used the “populate content” feature to preview the homepage but since it wasn’t actually the Footer template it just imported the homepage.

Problem solved, thanks again guys.
