Adding a new customized child theme destroyed our site.

Hello everybody,

Yesterday, we added a new customized child theme to our site -we had previously tried it in a local version. Everything was working ok. After adding it, the changes we had made were working ok as well -some minor changes in the views.

Today we found out something. Evertyhing we had been doing in the last month was lost. Our texts were lost, our pages were lost, etc. We reverted to the old at_movic theme but we are in the same place. Strangely, some new translations we had added yesterday are working and still there.
Does anybody know how to proceed now? I would be very grateful for any help.

Edit1: OK. One thing. I've realized is that when a new child theme is created, an appagebuilder directory with its content is automatically created. This directory was created for an old version of our web that we deplyoed in local for testing purposes. BUT I uploaded it to the server (for the newest, correct version) as it is part of the theme. Could this be part of the problem? Again, restoring the at_movic default theme didn't solve it so I dont know.

Edit2: Apparently adding our new theme deleted everything related to the appagebuilder configuration in our database. We restored our backup and everything is ok now - aside from momentaneous heart stroke. We'll try to edit the parent theme instead; as far as I know this is not recommended at all but we'll see how it works.

 

Regards

Well, it seems the issue is related to that addon then, since it does not happen on a default installation. Just wanted to note that since in your initial post and title it seems like it’s and issue with Prestashop itself. 

Glad you managed to solve it :)
