default coming soon page is crushed
-
i haven’t launched my site yet, and the default coming soon page is crushed. How can i fix this? I don’t want to launch the site now, so I would like a decent coming soon page (and I don’t want to change the theme either).

Hi there, @lukacszsofiailona!
Thanks for reaching out. I was able to duplicate the issue you mentioned here. This is actually a known bug for your current theme. We are looking into fixing this issue but I can’t give you a timeline for this specific fix.
Your theme is pretty old and I do strongly recommend looking for updated themes. This bug is only present on your current theme.
I highly recommend our new Site Editing themes. With Site Editing, you can edit nearly every element of your site. You can view a great video on how Site Editing works here:
Site Editing (formerly known as Full Site Editing or FSE) is a collection of interrelated features that unlocks the ability to edit your entire site using blocks. This allows you to take advantage of the familiar and flexible experience of the Block Editor in more places. Video Overview Site Editor With the Site Editor, you can design everything on your site — from the headerYou can also find all Site Editing compatible themes here:

Alternatively, you can launch your site at My Site → Settings → Launch site and then set your site to Private instead of Coming Soon.
If it is important to you to have the Coming Soon page instead, I can provide a CSS workaround here for you if you were to upgrade to the Premium plan that allows you to use CSS. You can upgrade here, if you are interested:
My Site → Upgrades → Plans
Let me know if you have any questions!

thanks for the answer! I’ve thought that the theme is the reason of the issue. but I’m worried about changing theme, when I’ve done that before the part of the content have lost. how can I change theme safe and without any loss? because I’ve already set the colours, the fonts, the menus.. if I change to another theme, I have to set them again, right?
also, how do I know if a theme automatically split the words (because this one does)? if i choose an other one, i choose without this feature. -
Hi there, @lukacszsofiailona!
I totally understand the concern but rest assured that your content (pages, posts, media, categories, tags, etc) will remain after changing your theme. Saying that, you will need to set up the new theme and color settings will not be applied automatically to the new theme – you will need to set the colors and other theme settings (fonts and menu, for example) when setting up the new theme. There is a great guide here that goes over everything you should check after changing your theme:
You can change the theme of your site as often as you like. Changing a theme lets you redesign your existing website content with a fresh look, without having to recreate your entire site. This guide explains how to switch themes and make sure your site looks just the way you like. How to Switch ThemesPreview a Theme Before SwitchingPreviewing Block-based ThemesPreviewing Classic ThemesHomepaalso, how do I know if a theme automatically split the words (because this one does)? if i choose an other one, i choose without this feature.
Can you elaborate a bit more on this? What do you mean by splitting up the words exactly? If you can share an example of a page where I can see this, I would be happy to take a look!
Looking forward to hearing from you.
