 * Hi
 * An issue with my website meant backing up the plugin folder renaming it and reinstalling
   each plugin. Upon reinstalling the site origin css plugin there was no coding?
 * I also tried reinstalling a previous backup of the plugin but again there is 
   no code.
 * I am not panicking yet as the plugin was backed up but how can i get the code
   data back?

 * Hi wffolkes,
 * SiteOrigin CSS stores its data in the wp_options table under siteorigin_custom_css[
   THEME-DIRECTORY]. So say for instance you were using our Vantage theme it would
   be saved in an option_name called siteorigin_custom_css[vantage].
 * If you’ve changed theme, or renamed it you should revert it back to grab the 
   CSS.
