Fixed another broken feature
june 3 2020 Another update that breaks the chilly theme. Spicepress got a new feature which works fine, Chilly however shares most files with spicepress but alas.. the include file is missing from the list of include files for the chilly theme. to fix it: check spicebox.php file for the line containing (line 53): if ( 'Chilly' == $theme->name || 'SpiceBlue' == $theme->name){ then insert this line below line 53: //Alpha Color Control require( SPICEB_PLUGIN_DIR . '/inc/controls/customizer-alpha-color-picker/class-spicepress-customize-alpha-color-control.php'); so your file will look like: if ( 'Chilly' == $theme->name || 'SpiceBlue' == $theme->name){ //Alpha Color Control require( SPICEB_PLUGIN_DIR . '/inc/controls/customizer-alpha-color-picker/class-spicepress-customize-alpha-color-control.php'); ========================================================= Another older issue: Today was the second time my website was badly broken by this plugin, due to the fact that there is an error in the include section.. it wants to include a file that does not exist. therefore the site throws a 500 server error. I fixed this for the first time by renaming the file in order for it to be opened. Also added that to the support pages, but today just a repetition of moves. again an update and again with the bad code. I keep fixing this manually, but spicebox is not on auto update any longer.

Hace cambios sin permiso al instalarlo y estropea tu Web
No recomiendo para nada instalar este Plugin. Hace cambios no autorizados: - Te cambia el logotipo por el suyo - Te cambia la página de inicio y pone texto para hacerse publicidad.... - Te cambia el pié de página y pone su propio logotipo. No lo instales, sobre todo en producción. Te estropea todo.... ¡¡¡¡¡NADA RECOMENDABLE!!!!!
