Hi there,

Noticed some problems when I do an October system update.

1. On some pages I see that an extra first block is appearing in a placed item. Not a very big problem as you can delete that first new empty block after the update. However it is a problem when the customer does the update himself.

2. I have a Service Item with three blocks. After the update the third block has disappeared and there is a new empty first block. My originally first block is now the second block and my originally second block is now the third block. This is a problem because all the text and the icon of the third Service block is lost.

Hello!
I try to reproduce this error but i can't. Which Octobercms version are you using? Which theme version? Are you using Translate plugin?

OctoberCMS version 4.5.5 (did see problem also in update to version 4.5.4) Success Theme version (version.yaml) 1.0.4 Yes I use the Translate plugin

Sorry ... the version of my Clear theme is 1.2.1 (my Success theme version is 1.0.4)

There are some problems, that confirmed from Octobercms team, when you use Repeater fields (like the Page builder) combined with Translate plugin (I have mentioned it as you will see in the description of the themes).
If you need Translate plugin you have to make sure that has more than one language installed. I guess you have installed Translation plugin with only one language and try to edit some static pages. Anyway make sure to have 2 languages installed.
Octobercms team fixed issues with repeater fields and Translate plugin but you have to wait for the next Octobercms releases. (I think is v.466 that will fix this issue).

I have 2 languages installed and had working pages with Dutch and English text. When you immediately insert the content for both languages before saving your pages it is working. The problems I encounter always appear after an update of the OctoberCMS system and/or plugins. Those problems I have with both of your themes (Success / Clear). With the Clear theme every block gets an empty first item and the content of your last item disappears.

So if I make a website for a client and use one of your themes ... I can't update the system or plugins without corrupting the pages.

I have never encountered any problem, but according to your description you are dealing with these problems. As you can see:
https://github.com/rainlab/translate-plugin/issues/307
https://github.com/octobercms/october/issues/4230

it was a bug with Octobercms repeater fields. Is not a theme bug, it is a system bug. With the latest Octobercms system update it should be fixed.
