My new theme works locally, but when once uploaded to live server, selected in the Admin, it shows some content, but it's not using my new XML files. The new default_head_blocks.xml defintely isn't being loaded.

Actually, some files are being loaded, but some aren't

  • What commands have you ran to deploy/since deployment? Try flushing all static files from the cache management section of the admin, it's a button near the bottom.

  • Hi I uninstalled the site and started again. It's really strange. After installation, I can see the images and stylesheets are being loaded. If I refresh the page, or go to the Admin area, the stylesheets and images disappear. If I then (again) change the folder permissions via the command line, they show again. Then, after updating the site, the styles disappear again – change permissions once again and they re-appear.

  • I've run the installation from the command line: composer create-project --repository-url=https://repo.magento.com/ magento/project-community-edition /home/hampers/public_html Navigated to the installation folder: find . -type f -exec chmod 644 {} + -o -type d -exec chmod 755 {} + I then used the installation wizard in the browser. It says everything's fine, but then the issue above occurs where images aren't appearing and stylesheets stop working (until I update the folder permissions again). I haven't even bothered to try to add my new theme yet!

  • If the base and pub/static URLs are correct then I'm not sure :( I've had a few similar problems with static files missing/not loading. Sometimes clearing caches and deleting var/pre-processed helps, other times it doesn't. I'm having quite a few problems with caching even with all caches disabled, M2 doesn't seem very dev friendly at the moment :(

Make sure you have performed below operation on your live site: 

php bin/magento setup:upgrade

and 

php bin/magento cache:clean

and 

php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy

after these all modules which are used in your theme will be installed.

  • Hi, thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, that didn't work. I'm still seeing a couple of my templates being shown on the page, amongst a load of unstyled HTML content.

First remove var/viev_preprocessed and pub/static directories and then do a php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy . Also keep in mind if your site has multiple store languages to add the locales at the end of the deploy command.
