Hi,
I have a menu item with an '&' in it and I want to display that menu-item on 2 positions in my layout, both with the same particle 'menu'.
On thop of the website (position 1) the & is shown right, but on the bottom (position 2) it is shown as & ;. How is that possible?
Thanks in advance

You're using Gantry 5.3.2 so please backup and update to Gantry 5.3.5
Also, update Hydrogen template to 5.3.5 too.

Updating is going wrong: when I update Gantry, my frontend doesn't work anymore. It says something like parent hydrogen is missing.
In my templates Hydrogen is indeed missing, when I install it, my particle-twig-overrides don't work anymore. Could you have a look on my website and check what's going wrong with the updates?
Before I started updating, I made a back-up. That back-up is now back on FTP and MySQL.

You've renamed the hydrogen template - so you need to rename it back before you even start updating. Also, you will need to check every override that you have created and make sure it is still compatible with the new version of Gantry 5. This is the downside of creating an override... you are making of copy of files in one version of gantry and expecting that they will work in subsequent versions - this is not always the case since we update these files.
So...
1. rename template back to hydrogen and get it all working again as "hydrogen".
2. check every one of you overrides to make sure they are still compatible with the new version of gantry (i.e. we may have made change to those files that you have changed so you should use the new version of the file and make your changes again).
3. update gantry
4. update hydrogen.
5. test.

Ouch... So there is no possibility to create my own template that uses the Gantry Framework?
Why does Gantry only works with a temlpate named Hydrogen? I want to use an own template with my own overrides and things, but your framework is great and very usefull so I want to use that.
Renaming the template every time I need to update and checking all overides is gonna take a lot of time.

- Ok, I took back the Hydrogen template and moved all my modifiactions of my own template to the Base Outline from Hydrogen (5.3.5). Then I updatet Gantry, but the & ; is still visible in the bottom menu. Could you please have a look?

Yes you can create your own templates. But that isn't what you've done - you've taken Hydrogen and then added overrides to it and also for the Gantry framework too. We constantly develop and bug fix both Gantry 5 and templates, as such it is your resposibility as a template developer to ensure that your template is compatible with the latest versions. We try to avoid changes to the framework that will necessitate changes to templates, but from time to time it is necessary and we have to update all our templates too.
So, if you create overrides that modify how the Hydrogen template works, or create overrides that modify how the Gantry 5 framework works, and we update either Gantry 5 or the Hydrogen template then you have to ensure that your overrides are still valid. This is why in general you should avoid creating overrides. Had you written your template from scratch (as we do) then it would not have overrides at all, but you would still have to make sure that it worked on the latest version of Gantry 5 (again as we do).
So, the advice I gave you was correct. In order to ensure you have the latest Hydrogen bug fixes and a version that is compatible with the latest Gantry 5, you do need to update it.

Ok, thanks for the explaination. I didn't mention there was a difference between a copy and a new template from scratch. The only thing I still don't understand is why Gantry will not work without Hyrdogen (apperently I can't use a template with another name as the default template for Gantry) , but never mind, let's get back on topic. As I wrote 18 minutes ago, I've already get back to the Hydrogen template and updatet Gantry.
Unfortunately the problem with & ; is still there.
