Reply To: Featured Slider Section can't be updated since update to Theme

I think my last post got held for moderation. Probably posted too many links?

Anyway, since I can’t DM you:

Are you able to post anything at all? Such as a new blog entry? I have a gross workaround, but it helps you avoid reinstalling the whole site.

1. Export the customizer settings as before
2. Create a child theme as per Acme themes instructions: http://www.acmethemes.com/blog/2016/07/child-themes-and-its-importance/
3. Alternatively, if you trust a random dude on the internet (you never should) you can take the prepared package I made here the other day: dropbox.com/s/bmzs5jxjha3t7oy/education-base-child.zip?dl=0
4. The child theme does not inherit customizer settings. So you can active the child theme, and import the settings you exported in step 1.

I hope this helps.
