Page Changed By Itself CSS Doesn’t Work

    The site header nav is supposed to be on a single line, it has changed to 2. The header logo is supposed to be left aligned and have a white background, it is now centered with no background in the wrapper. The entire site wrapper background is now gone, although I don’t mind the look of that. I did not initiate any of these changes and am wondering what would have caused them. I have the knowledge to fix them by editing the CSS directly, but for some reason the changes don’t actually change anything on the site itself. It’s like the site is not picking up the CSS at all.

    Ideas?

    Hi PatrioticPress,

    the reason why your CSS changes have disappeared is that you probably have edited the stylesheet (style.css) directly. You shouldn’t do that. Whenever you edit core theme files, these changes will be lost after theme updates.

    Instead you should add your custom CSS code in your WordPress dashboard under Appearance => Customize => Additional CSS or by using a plugin to add code snippets.

    If you’re not seeing changes after applying custom CSS code, then this usually can only have two reasons. Either the CSS code hasn’t been applied correctly or your site is cached (e.g. via a caching plugin) and in that case you should clear the cache accordingly.
