- Large empty gap below the price box on Masteriyo’s Single Course page at tablet and mobile widths.

- Block editor styles failed to load in Gutenberg’s iframed editor, triggering a console deprecation warning.
- Checkout Order Summary product names broke into unreadable character fragments at tablet-range viewport widths.
- Container Layout and Sidebar Layout Customizer controls had no effect on Masteriyo Single Course pages.
- Footer Builder Social element’s Alignment control showed no default selection, unlike the Copyright element’s.
- My Account active tab kept the default button color instead of updating with the Customizer’s Button color setting.
- Breadcrumb’s Link Color control was labeled simply “Color”, unlike the adjacent Text Color and Separator Color controls.
- Mobile off-canvas menu listed every page on the site instead of falling back to the Primary Menu when no Mobile Menu was assigned.
- Customizer icons and the Zakra Dashboard logged React “Invalid DOM property” console warnings due to un-camelCased SVG attributes.
- Sidebar widgets were still rendered and shipped to the browser, then hidden via CSS, whenever Container Layout was Narrow or Stretched.
- At tablet width (768px), the WooCommerce sidebar column was squeezed too narrow alongside the multi-column product grid, wrapping widget headings awkwardly.
- Full Width/Wide Gutenberg blocks didn’t break out to full viewport width with No Sidebar layout, and incorrectly broke out of the Narrow layout’s centered column.
- Header Builder, Footer Builder, and Customizer settings had no effect on the Starter Content homepage; also fixed a stray content gap and an unwanted page title bar on that same page.
- Header Builder Search color controls had several issues: Background Color had no effect, Icon Color and Text Color appeared under the wrong section, and Icon Color was overridden by Text Color.
