After updated plugin categories and layout is different

[andrew8]

Hi,

So I have installed your updates and just spent the last two hours restoring all of my custom settings. Is it normal for you to overwrite all settings upon updates? If so can you instead have an option that doesn’t do that but offers a button that says restore default settings.

Also I noticed it looks like the html <br> is being removed from the hours within the results. can this be changed so it doesn’t do that? it also looks like there is some new styling using white-space pre.

I also noticed that the map container id went from #slp_loader_div to #map. Is there a list of changes I can look back on in the future. A lot of these changes are breaking a ton of our customization’s.

Just trying to figure out how best to not have this happen in the future.

What version did you update from to? And what Add-ons do you have activated? None of the recent updates changed CSS or styling views or custom settings. Before updating I read the View details under the Plugin before updating and I make sure I have a recent back-up. Any CSS should be saved in your local directory.

The announcements in NEWS  usually tells you what has changed and  why and provides other important information, such as the changes to the google API as of June 11 2018…

You can always access  by viewing under “Details” under the plugin  in your WP Plugin ADMIN panel;  I would always look at this before updating . Under “view details ” you will see the changelog for each version of the core SLP . Since I do not know which versions you updated from and to or what your plugin environment is I can assist by providing this snapshot of the core SLP changelog.
