Title: CSS Problems Last modified: February 25, 2021 --- # CSS Problems * Resolved [bob reeves](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bob-reeves/) * (@bob-reeves) * [5 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-problems-35/) * Hi, If I create a new form, and then add css using the css tab in the form editor it automatically adds that css to to a new css file in the theme editor. * However if I then delete the css from the form editor it does not delete the css from the form css in the theme editor. * If I then input new css in the form editor, it does not work as it is being overridden by the css in the theme editor. * Surely this must be a bug Viewing 8 replies - 1 through 8 (of 8 total) * Plugin Author [Aurovrata Venet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aurovrata/) * (@aurovrata) * [5 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-problems-35/#post-14101369) * > However if I then delete the css from the form editor it does not delete the > css from the form css in the theme editor. * it should.

I have made a small change on the github repo. Can you download this [tentative fix and manually upgrade](https://github.com/aurovrata/cf7-grid-layout/releases/tag/v4.8.3rc1) your plugin to let me know if it fixes the issue for you. If it does I will release it with the next update. * > PHP Notice: ob_end_flush(): failed to send buffer of zlib output compression( > 1) in F:\xampp\htdocs\cf7grid\wp-includes * this does not seem to be related to the plugin, but rather an issue with your [setup](https://stackoverflow.com/a/38694583/3596672). * Thread Starter [bob reeves](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bob-reeves/) * (@bob-reeves) * [5 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-problems-35/#post-14105657) * That seems to have worked. * Thankyou very much for your help. * I will mark the thread as resolved. * Regards * Bob * Plugin Author [Aurovrata Venet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aurovrata/) * (@aurovrata) * [5 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-problems-35/#post-14106106) * Wonderful.
