BUG: Buttons and Text Boxes Glitching Color (Site Editor Doesn't Match Published Site)

This is really an issue for the Weebly staff, but any input from other people is appreciated.

This is what the contact form on my SITE EDITOR looks like on my end:

Now if you go to my published site, 50% of the time it looks like that, but 50% of the time it looks like this:

I can confirm this is not a browser-specific issue, as this also happens on Microsoft Edge.

If you drag the mouse cursor, you can see any text you type, so it's probably a color issue.

I'm on a Starter plan and I'm using a slightly modified version of Birdseye 2. The same issue still happens with the unmodified theme.


Here are the changed scripts. Anything bold and underlined is what I added.

header.html

<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" /> </head> <body class="header-page"> <div class="wrapper"> <!--<div class="birdseye-header">--> <div class="nav-wrap"> <div class="container"> <!--<div class="logo">{logo}</div>--> <div class="nav desktop-nav">{menu}</div> <label class="hamburger"><span></span></label> </div> </div> <!--</div>--> <div class="banner-wrap"> {{#header}} <div class="container"> <div class="banner">{content}</div> </div> {{/header}} </div> <div class="main-wrap"> {{#sections}} <div class="container">{content}</div> {{/sections}} </div> <div class="footer-wrap"> <div class="footer">{footer}</div> </div><!-- end footer-wrap --> </div><!-- /.wrapper --> <div id="navMobile" class="nav mobile-nav"> <label class="hamburger"><span></span></label> {menu} </div> <script type="text/javascript" src="/files/theme/plugins.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="/files/theme/custom.js"></script> <div style='display:none'>{title}</div> </body> </html>
variables_dark.less

@bg:  #000000 #1B1F59;
@fill: #FFFFFF;
@shade: #000000 #1B1F59;
@font1: 'Birdseye', sans-serif;
@font2: 'Montserrat', sans-serif;

I'm not sure what more info I should share, so let me know what else you need. Thank you!

There is currently an issue affecting some sites where certain CSS/JS files are throwing a 404 error. It seems to be intermittent, though, and isn't affecting everyone. Our engineers are prioritizing fixing this, though, so it should hopefully be resolved shortly. Thanks for your patience!

Yep, it's supposed to be white like in the Site Editor, not invisible. Thank you for confirming the bug

Oh wow, that's a lot of errors. This should help the Weebly developers, although I'll still try editing the custom.js myself. Thank you again

My CSS stylesheet is missing. I'll just try rebuilding the site with a different theme, namely Journey.

Ok, interesting thing happening. I switched to Journey but every time I go on the website, 50% of the time it's Journey, but 50% of the time it's the broken version of Birdseye 2 with the invisible text boxes.

I think my website got stuck on something in Weebly's servers and just needs to be refreshed by a technician.

Either way, I've reverted back to Birdseye 2 and am awaiting help from the Weebly staff.

The issue I mentioned above has been resolved; you might need to re-publish and clear cache if you don't see it fixed.

It seems to have the border back now on my mobile version of Chrome.

Best of luck, Mark

Yeah, I had my site moved over to a copy on the Support Center's live chat. Thanks for letting us know anyway
