 * Hi there guys
 * Very quick question – may I ask what the difference is between ‘Editor’ and ‘
   Edit CSS’ in the Appearance tab on WordPress please?
 * I had CSS edits in both of these and unfortunately my theme developer has decided
   to log in to my account to assist on another issue and completely wipe the ‘Edit
   CSS’ part, removing a bunch of CSS from my site and removing the ‘Edit CSS’ from
   the menu on WordPress.
 * Thanks, Tom.

 * “Edit CSS” comes from a plugin to handle custom CSS.
    “Editor” is a place where
   you can edit theme files

 * I see! Thank you Andrew.
 * Do you know which plugin creates ‘Edit CSS’ please? The reason I ask – the first
   thing I did was to check my plugins but none of them appear to have been deaactivated
   or removed.
 * Thanks, Tom.
