Title: [Plugin: WordPress Popular Posts] CSS Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # [Plugin: WordPress Popular Posts] CSS * [mariomb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mariomb/) * (@mariomb) * [13 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-popular-posts-css/) * Hey * I forgot to save my tweaked css before doing the update (yeah, dumb), still, I want to edit the CSS of the plugin but it’s ‘inactive’ – am I missing something? I’m not an expert coder and all, but still – is it fixable? Am I doing something wrong? Thanks. * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-popular-posts/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-popular-posts/) Viewing 13 replies - 1 through 13 (of 13 total) * Plugin Author [Hector Cabrera](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hcabrera/) * (@hcabrera) * [13 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-popular-posts-css/#post-3014419) * Hi mariomb, * What do you mean with “inactive”? * Thread Starter [mariomb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mariomb/) * (@mariomb) * [13 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-popular-posts-css/#post-3014422) * When trying to edit the CSS (wordpress-popular-posts/style/wpp.css) the on top title shows: * Editing wordpress-popular-posts/style/wpp.css (inactive) * (I tried to deactivate the plugin and then to edit it, but the same message shows up). I edited the CSS and the changes did not take any effect. * Thanks for the help. * Plugin Author [Hector Cabrera](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hcabrera/) * (@hcabrera) * [13 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-popular-posts-css/#post-3014424) * That’s with WordPress’ built-in editor, right? Never noticed that before, I’m getting the same message. However, I’m still able to edit it and save any changes I make to it. * Alternatively, you can simply download the wpp.css file from your site and edit it on your computer, and then reupload it. * Thread Starter [mariomb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mariomb/) * (@mariomb) * [13 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-popular-posts-css/#post-3014431) * Hi – yes, I am able to edit it too, and save changes, the problem is that they simply don’t take effect. * Thread Starter [mariomb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mariomb/) * (@mariomb) * [13 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-popular-posts-css/#post-3014432) * and yes, it is with the wordpress built-in editor * Plugin Author [Hector Cabrera](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hcabrera/) * (@hcabrera) * [13 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-popular-posts-css/#post-3014442) * There must be something else. I did make some changes (changed author’s name to red color) and it worked just fine. * Do you only have one copy of the `wpp.css` file in your site? Can you check that the wpp.css file inserted in your theme’s header is the same you’re editing? * Thread Starter [mariomb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mariomb/) * (@mariomb) * [13 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-popular-posts-css/#post-3014533) * Hi Hector * Yes, it’s the same. This started to happen with the new and updated version – up until now I had no problem implementing changes. * Thread Starter [mariomb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mariomb/) * (@mariomb) * [13 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-popular-posts-css/#post-3014535) * Hi again – yes, the problem is with the update – I reinstalled the old version and all is ok – I can tweak it no prob. * Plugin Author [Hector Cabrera](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hcabrera/) * (@hcabrera) * [13 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-popular-posts-css/#post-3014543) * Hey mariomb, can you please share your site’s URL so I can go take a look? * [leecarlton622](https://wordpress.org/support/users/leecarlton622/) * (@leecarlton622) * [13 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-popular-posts-css/#post-3014823) * I’m running into the same issue.
