Theme variables disappear

[mbaxter91288]

Hi there,

I am creating a theme and trying to utilize the {{ theme }} variables I set in modules. I have a much more complicated module, however, I've boiled it down to this simple code:

{{ theme|tojson }}

<p class="text-primary-2">easing: {{ module.header.enabled }} {{ theme.global.animations.timing }}</p>

Upon initial page load this is what I get:

{"font":"Playfair Display","font_set":"GOOGLE","styles":{"font-family":"'Playfair Display'","font-style":"normal","font-weight":"normal",....}}

<p class="text-primary-2">easing: false duration-200</p></div>

p.s. I've shortened the theme JSON for obvious reasons.

Now, when I update anything in the module, like updating a text field or something the module refreshes as normal, however, this is now the output:

{} 
 <p class="text-primary-2">easing: false </p>

As you can see, the theme object is completely empty.

Is this right? surely not? Any ideas?

HubSpot has confirmed this is a bug. I have a support ticket open and our partner account manager has escalated to the correct team. I will update this ticket as and when I know more.

hi @webdew ,

Thanks for taking the time to respond, however, not sure how that link helps in any way? Is there a specific section of that article that highlights something related to my query?

Thanks,

For an update. I've just tried using the "inherited_value" field as well. So, for example, I've created a module-level "animation.easing" field and set its "inherited_value" to the theme's "theme.global.animations.easing" value.

Again, upon page load, this pulls the theme value correctly but when you change any setting and the module re-renders, the theme value is lost and it falls back to the fields default value.

This is really frustrating and sure must be a bug?
