 * Hi we have just noticed the custom CSS has disappeared and we don’t know why?
   Could the plugin have updated and not kept it there? Any ideas, it certainly 
   wasn’t removed manually?
 * Would it make more sense to keep these changes in our standard CSS file from 
   now on?
 * Many thanks in advance!

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * That sounds strange, and I can’t really see a reason for this. TablePress does
   not touch the “Custom CSS” during an update, so that I don’t think that it was
   removed that way. Could it be possible that something in the `wp_options` database
   table was modified? That’s where the CSS is stored.
 * Now, TablePress additionally stores the “Custom CSS” in a CSS file, at [http://example.com/wp-content/tablepress-custom.css](http://example.com/wp-content/tablepress-custom.css)
   
   Does that file still exist and show the “Custom CSS”?
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * Tobias that has to be the fastest response I’ve ever had on support! Thanks so
   much.
 * I found the file you mentioned and it has the current css that I’ve re-entered
   but not the missing old css. very odd but at least if this is an external file
   I can always restore a back up should I need to.

 * Hi,
 * yes, if you had entered new CSS, the old CSS will also be gone from that file.
   
   And yes, if you back up that file, you can restore the CSS from it.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
