 * Hi,
 * Using 2.2.21, I’m seeing the “Customise Styles” is very buggy:
 * 1) Sometimes after a “customize” and a “save changes”, there’s no new theme.
 * 2) Sometimes, changes are not saved at all.
 * 3) Sometimes, changed lines in the file are deleted altogether after a Save and
   reload.
 * 4) Once a custom theme DOES show up in the list, I cannot delete it.
 * I’m a developer, so I don’t think this is a “you’re doing it wrong” question 
   🙂

 * It was consistent at the time. I have not been using the plugin recently. What
   would you like me to test?

 * Can you try to install the plugin again and add some custom style. Make sure 
   that if you have a cache plugin that you clear the cache both in the plugin and
   the browser. Also if it does not work with your current theme can you test a 
   default WordPress theme like Twenty Fourteen?
 * If none of the above work can you disable all plugins except this one and carry
   out a test.
 * Let me know how you go.

 * Hi Stefan,
 * I accompanied my last bug report with a financial donation (please, everybody
   who gets some value out of this, please follow suit!).
 * This one, I’ll accompany with a demo video 🙂

 * Hi I have watched your video, great information.
 * This is what I have done on my test environment. I go to custom styles tab, I
   click on Dark Customize link which produces a copy of the style. The name given
   to the new style is **New – Dark** as you mentioned in your video.
 * I don’t make any changes, I simply click on Save Changes button. So now I have
   a **“new Custom stylesheets added New – Dark”**
 * Next I click on Delete to delete the new custom style added. A pop up window 
   is displayed with the following message **Are you sure you want to delete this
   custom style?**… I click on OK and the custom style is deleted I then click again
   on Save Changes button so that the deletion is completed. I refresh the window
   and in my website it is deleted. So I was not able to produce your error. This
   was carried out in Firefox 31.0 version.
 * Which browser did you use?

 * Firefox 30, under Ubuntu.
 * Trying it with an empty Firefox profile in safe mode… same thing!
 * Well, now we have a mystery. Want me to send me a test version with some alerts
   and var_dumps sprinkled around?
 * Even blowing away the WordPress codebase – same thing.

 * Hi gbell12 make sure that you allow pop ups. Please see this [URL](http://mbrsolution.com/tutorial/wordpress-slideshow-plugin-custom-styles.php)
   I did some testing and added some screen dumps.

 * Ah, you’re “Manuel”! Sorry for calling you “Stefan” in the video. Stefan’s the
   original creator and you help with with maintenance and support now?
 * I get the pop-up… but wasn’t hitting “Save Changes” as you must have seen in 
   the video.
 * I hope you’ll agree it’s not exactly obvious that must be done since “delete”
   makes it look like the deletion already happened. Perhaps a checkbox instead?
   The way deleting posts or pages works. Check mark it for deletion, then hit “
   Save changes”. Much more obvious, especially if “Save changes” is called “Apply”.

 * And there’s still the issue shown in the video of a duplicated style becoming
   empty…

 * Hi gbell12, [@stefan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stefan/) is the plugin’s

 * Hi I just carried out a test.
 * I can confirm that when I click on custom styles tab, then I click on Dark Customize
   link which produces a copy of the style. The name given to the new style is New–
   Dark. I click on **Save Changes** button the style is not empty even if I refresh
   the browser as per your instructions above in the video.

 * Yes I saw your video and it did happen as you mentioned however I carried out
   the same task on my production server locally in running Xampp and Windows 7 
   sp1 and it works. Also running Firefox 31.0.
 * Have you tried to use a different browser?

 * Can’t get it to go on Chrome. I guess you can just wait to see if other users
   have the same error.
 * Cheers for the support.
