  1. investigating Aug 01, 2023, 12:18 PM UTC

    We're aware of an ongoing issue where the Background Media settings appear to be reverting to defaults, particularly when set to text only. This means that sections initially set with solid colour backgrounds might unexpectedly display an uploaded image/video or the default placeholder image. We have identified a temporary workaround that can alleviate the issue. You can reset the background media options for the affected sections back to "text only" or by deleting the background media on Grid Sections. This should restore your intended solid colour backgrounds and prevent unwanted images or videos from appearing. Our team is actively investigating this matter and working on a resolution. It's worth noting that this problem only impacts stories that were made prior to today, and any new stories are not affected. We understand the inconvenience this might cause and sincerely apologize for disrupting your workflow.
