About This Project
A local service business contacted me after their WordPress site completely broke following a theme update. The homepage layout had collapsed, custom fonts stopped loading, the child theme had overriding conflicts, and Elementor widgets were rendering incorrectly. The client had no idea what caused it. I performed a systematic theme-level diagnosis, isolated every fault, and restored the site cleanly — with zero data loss and no extra downtime.
