Hi @krissnikkers,

it seems like the changes are appearing on your website. What modifications exactly are not showing?

And Caching is always really annoying for changes of your CSS styles. Keep in mind that also browsers have a own cache. Here is a short instruction for different browsers how to disable the caching:

The different colour stripes… supposed to be lighter than that… unless I have changed the wrong colour?  The link colour is wrong as well.  If you look at the colours on the capture I posted they are not correct… 🙂

Also I have cleared the cache several times on the browser and still not working… it does eventually but can take up to a couple of hours.

If I change things on the main theme it works straight away.

Hey @krissnikkers,

it seems that there is a problem with some browsers and the inline style. My screenshot is made with Firefox and it works great, but Chromium doesn’t use this custom CSS styles.

Unfortunately it’s already quite late here in Bangkok, but I will try to fix it tomorrow.

Your custom CSS style also changed the Footer of your website. to prevent this you have to add #af-wrapper to your selector:

#af-wrapper .post-footer{
   YOUR CSS STYLES
}

Yeah I am on Opera which is Chromium-based… so that is probably the problem…

I have also changed the permissions on the custom file to 755 and that didn’t work either…

And thanks for the footer bit I will change that… 🙂

In the meantime you can also use the following plugin to check if there are any problems with a plugin or the theme:

Use the debug mode to run WordPress without any plugins and a basic theme for your user without affecting the your website.

Hey @krissnikkers,

did you find a solution with your custom colors? Now it seems like the colors are the same in Chromium and Firefox.

No that has just done it on its own…  this is what normally happens… takes a good few hours before it changes.

Really weird…

That’s really strange. But it really seems like it’s a caching problem.

Since it was also showing the wrong style on my browser it can’t be the browsers cache. Maybe your web host is also using caching to reduce their traffic. It’s also possible that a there was another plugin on your website that is also caching. Here is a good instruction to remove the cache:

Oh that is a good point they have just put a CDN in for caching may have to take that off  🙂
