    I’m using the default entry card template, and updating the plugin has broken all customizations I had. The font has changed, placement of items have moved, and I’ve lost the ability to show both the logo and image on the left side. What happened and how can I fix it?

    If you made the changes by altering the core plugin template file rather than use template override files I’m afraid your changes are lost unless you can restore it from a backup. IF you haven’t been keeping backups, your web host will like have a recent backup and should be able to restore the it for you. Be careful, ask them how old it is and if they can only restore the files to a temp folder so you can grab a copy of your altered template.

    Just like any other plugin, when WordPress does an update it deletes the files in the plugin folder and then copies in the new files. WordPress does not check for altered files or anything like that.

    Sorry for the trouble, but I hope this helps.

    Unfortunately I tried restoring the site files and it’s still broken. Can you tell me how to force the logo to show under the image?

    Same way you did before. That has not changed. Drop this in the template to show the logo:

    $entry->getImage(
    array(
        'image'    => 'logo',
        'fallback' => array(
            'type'   => 'none',
        ),
    )
);

    Make sure to use a template override file.

    I did that, but it’s now only showing the logo. I need it to show both.

    Yep, nothing I do is making both show..it’s either one or the other, not both logo and image.

    You are not replacing the code for the image are you? The code I gave you is to be added to the template, not to replace code.

    Also, make sure you are working on the correct template file.
