 * Hello,
 * I created the following custom css type:
    – linking type: external – where on
   page: header – where in site: frontend
 * Updating changes are however not taken into effect (view source still shows old
   css). I also cleared browser cache and disabled litespeed cache plugin. Thank
   you.

 * Does this happen only for CSS custom codes placed in the header, frontend, external?
   Or does this happen also for other custom codes?
 * Could you check if this could be a conflict with another plugin? Try deactivating
   other plugins and see if the changed in the custom CSS are saved?

 * I’m only using 1 custom type (css).
 * Your css must be cached somewhere but i really don’t see where as i even deactivated
   cache plugin -> css file is updated but theme is not.
 * If i add few lines of css in appearance/theme editor or appearance/customize/
   additional css-> theme is updated.
 * Thank you

 * From your first message I thought the changes don’t get saved at all.
 * Let’s say you make a change to the CSS code and click the “Publish” button. Are
   the changes saved in the editor? Above the editor you’ll find a link to the CSS
   custom code (for example: [http://example/wp-content/uploads/custom-css-js/123.css](http://example/wp-content/uploads/custom-css-js/123.css)).
   If you open that file are the changes saved there?
 * Could you give me a link to your website and tell me what CSS rule you changed
   in the CSS code and doesn’t get into effect?

 * Changes are saved but after some reading i think it might be a cascading issue.
   I will send wp login to [https://www.silkypress.com/contact/](https://www.silkypress.com/contact/)

 * No, please don’t send wp login. I only want to have a look at the frontend. The
   link to the website is enough.

 * Solved. Plugin is working perfectly. Diana found a small issue due to a misspell
   in my css. It was my fault but Diana was very reactive and very helpful. Thanks
   a lot.
