Duplicate Block Content After Upgrading to 5.6.2.1

Permalink
After manually upgrading I see duplicate block content on all pages of our site. One block I can edit but the other I can't edit or delete. I've searched the community for a solution but didn't find one. Please advise. Thanks!http://www.1899farmhouse.com

I have seen this before where you have two areas in your template with the same name, like this for example
<?php $a = new Area('main');
       $a->display($c); ?>
<?php $a = new Area('main');
       $a->display($c); ?>

Make sure the areas in your templates have unique names.

Similar to @weyboat's note, there was a bug upgrading sites from a version of c5 before global areas to one with global areas, where upgrading a theme to use global areas combined with standard areas and global areas with the same name could result in duplication or flip-flopping between the content of the regular and global area. You can check for more info in the bug reports.

Here's the code from webroot / themes / 1899_theme / home.php

It looks like they do have different names or am I looking in the wrong place?

<?php
defined('C5_EXECUTE') or die(_("Access Denied."));
$this->inc('elements/header.php');
?>
<div id="content" class="clearfix">
      <div class="container_12">
         <div class="grid_12">
            <?php 
               $as = new Area('top');
               $as->display($c);
            ?>
         </div>
      </div>
      <div class="container_12">
         <div class="grid_7 alpha">
