I was trying to change some stuff yet, when i reloaded the page i wasnt getting a change.

Sorry, can’t see what you mean. I can see a grey border around it though. * Thread Starter [txelwood](https://wordpress.org/support/users/txelwood/) * (@txelwood) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/style-sheet-css/#post-3588317) * i understand the custom manager, so i can save templates so after updating the theme i can keep the look right? Yes i want to change the gray border that surrounds the white background of the page. * [Andrew Nevins](https://wordpress.org/support/users/anevins/) * (@anevins) * WCLDN 2018 Contributor | Volunteer support * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/style-sheet-css/#post-3588318) * > so i can save templates so after updating the theme i can keep the look right * Yes so your changes don’t erase when the theme updates. * May you open your webpage in Google Chrome? * Thread Starter [txelwood](https://wordpress.org/support/users/txelwood/) * (@txelwood) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/style-sheet-css/#post-3588323) * yes? is there a way to check the css on the page through chrome? * [Andrew Nevins](https://wordpress.org/support/users/anevins/) * (@anevins) * WCLDN 2018 Contributor | Volunteer support * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/style-sheet-css/#post-3588324) * Yes. * In Google chrome; – Right click on that grey border. – Select ‘Inspect element’.– A new toolbar appears. – Look at the right side of the toolbar. – Scroll down until you find a border style. * Thread Starter [txelwood](https://wordpress.org/support/users/txelwood/) * (@txelwood) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/style-sheet-css/#post-3588329) * ok ill try this later when i get home from dinner, ill let you know.
