Custom.css not loading

crouton4

My client has requested that I change up the colours of the website. I'm using the Aiga template. I have created a new style and applied it. On the front-end the new style's custom.css is not loading. I continue to see the old style. I have cleared the cache, cleared the Litespeed Cache etc. but I continue to be stuck.

I'm assuming the issue is a small one but I cannot seem to figure out what the new custom.css is not loading. I look forward to you being able to help me out.

Thanks,

Steve

Hi
Can you tell me the specific code you added not loading?
Sometimes its browser cache and server side cache the load the same file. If the custom.css is updated in the template and not loading same on frontend its clearly cache.

Hi Ninja The changes eventually stuck. I just made some additional changes but am not seeing the new custom.css load:
There should be a light text shadow on line 2
I saved the custom.css
I opened the template and save the template.
Compiled Less to CSS
Cleared Litespeed
Cleared the cache on the site if there was anything in there.
* BUT I'm still not getting the result.

Thanks again,

Steve

Hi
Can you tell me which code is not loading ?
I can see there are too many codes on your custom.css file here https://upstandingcomedy.ca/templates/ja_aiga/css/custom.css

Thanks again for the reply Ninja. As of today the code loaded properly. I am so puzzled by the caching issue. I just added on line 26 ... .navbar-default .navbar-nav > .active > span {color:#008080;} and it isn't loading. I've cleared the cache and checked in two different browsers.

Hi
If the code is added but not loading when you load site its your site cache, Either server or CDN
you have to clear both as well. I am not able to check admin panel as the /administrator redirected me to Homepage. I can check if code on backend exist its clear cache from server.

Hi Ninja I'm back at it. I have had my hosting company refresh the cache and I am still stuck. For instance, I have the following in custom.css:

Line 37
.navbar-default .navbar-nav > .active > span,
.navbar-default .navbar-nav > li > span:hover,
.navbar-default .navbar-nav > .active > span:hover,
.navbar-default .navbar-nav > .open > a:hover,
{
border: 0;
color: #800020 !important;
cursor: pointer;
font-family: "Heebo";
font-weight: 700;
font-size: 16px !important;
padding-left: 15px;
padding-right: 15px;
position: relative;
margin: 0;
text-transform: capitalize;
}

I've updated the login URL. Sorry about that. I'm left to wonder if the htaccess is blocking it.

THank you for your patience.

Hi
It appears working now http://prntscr.com/10tvch4
I can see the code is loading fine, clear browser cache to see the changes.

Hi Ninja I had a former JoomlaBamboo employee provide some direction. In my troubleshooting, I have discovered that when I am using sh404SEF the custom.css is not loading and is stuck in cache. He also noted that Theme Magic is not working.

Would these two things be related?
Is this an sh404SEF issue or the template?

Thanks again for your patience,

Steve

Hi Steve,

You can make a test that when enabling sh404sef, try to view the source code of the page and see if custom.css file is loaded or not. If not, you can look at the console tab of the browser when inspect element and see if there is any error there or not.

I think this might be the final update saguaros

I re-enabled sh404SEF and had the same issue. I then noticed I had a htaccess.txt file at the root. Once I renamed that everything seems to be working fine … WOW. That was such a challenge. Thanks for helping walk me through this.

Hi
There could be browser cache code implemented in your htaccess file that loads the same style file instantly. You can check the code and revert the changes one by one, It will help you to get exact code as well.
