   Hi
   
   I've written a plugin for my site and everything works fine, but sometimes when I refresh the site the plugin isn't loaded! The plugin loads a CSS file, so the site looks very ugly without the plugin.

   Does anyone know why this happens?

   Best regards

   How are you loading the CSS file? Are you using wp_enqueue_scripts or just adding it to the wp_head?

   This is what I've got:

   function add_my_stylesheet() {
    echo "<link rel='stylesheet' href='".get_bloginfo('url')."/wp-content/plugins/arras-tweak/style.css'); ?>";    }
   add_action('wp_head', 'add_my_stylesheet', 25);

   See if this works better

   add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'add_my_stylesheet' , 25 );
   function add_my_stylesheet() {
       wp_register_style( 'arras-tweak', get_bloginfo( 'url' ) . '/wp-content/plugins/arras-tweak/style.css' );
       wp_enqueue_style( 'arras-tweak' );
   }

   The , 25 will bump the style sheet down a little but if your CSS is unique then the order shouldn't really matter. If you need it to come later then leave it in.

   There's a better way to get the current plugin directory name then hard coding it, but I've only had one cup of coffee this morning. :)

   Also regarding your original problem, do you have an conditionals for when to add that style sheet? It maybe that the condition was preventing the wp_head addition from being called.

   Not sure what you mean by
   

   condition was preventing the wp_head addition from being called

   By the way, I've got the same issue with a widget plugin I've written. This is the code I use to load the widget:

   function sidebar_facebook_Init() {
     register_widget('sidebar_facebook_Widget');
     }
     add_action('widgets_init', 'sidebar_facebook_Init');
