    I was doing some maintenance on a site that hasn't been looked at for a long time, and managed to change the Site Layout from 2 cols to 3 cols. It's running Genesis 2.1.2 with Sleek 1.0.1. I'd rather not upgrade Genesis until after I fix the problem in case I introduce other issues.

    The Genesis Theme Settings page has a Default Layout area, but it is empty. My other site (that has a lot more customization and is based on Prose) shows thumbnails for the layout.

    The Customize tool shows Site Layout, but the Select Default Layout drop down has nothing.

    Now I have 3rd column with Secondary Sidebar Widget Area at the top and no content.

    I can't do anything with the Widget page. I'm just stuck.

    Any help would be most appreciated.

    Thanks
    Mike

    Genesis 2.1.2 doesn't work with the latest versions of WordPress. You need Genesis 2.4 or higher to work with WordPress 4.7 or higher. See this post: https://www.studiopress.community/topic/wordpress-4-7-and-sidebar-issues-please-upgrade-genesis/

    Thank you thank you. I just upgraded both public sites. Ironic that the thing I was nervous about (updating Genesis), was the solution.
