CSS Changes don't show up

    Hello Guys

    I’m using Arras theme on WP 3.5.1 here : http://www.terredelegendes.com/

    I have a weird issue as I made some changes on my CSS code (changing the h1/h2 color etc) which do not appear in any browser.

    When I explore the files through FTP/Wordpress theme editor – I see the changes, but it doesn’t reflect on any browser.

    I manually emptied the cache + DNS ones – which didn’t help.

    I’m using W3 Total cache, thought it could be the issue – but also empty all cache here without any luck.

    I can’t understand why I don’t see any of the changes in the code when I inspect it in Chrome.

    Help would be much appreciated

    Thanks in advance

    Try adding;

    body {
 border: 10px solid red !important;
}

    No change? Check your CSS for syntax errors.

    W3 won’t be the problem if you’re emptying cache. Most of your h1/h2 are links. So put your color change to ‘h1 a’ as some class with ‘h1 a’ will override your ‘h1’

    I’m doing this change in the CSS style sheet

    I understand the overriding rules for CSS and if I could see the changes when I inspect my source code in my browser I would definitely know it’s this kind of issue.

    But at the very moment I do not see the code changes when I inspect it in Google Chrome.

    Below is what I have on my FTP/Wordpress editor:

    h2 {
    font-size: 140%;
    color: #05AFF2;
    }

    Here is what I have when I inspect element :

    h2 {
    font-size: 140%;
    }

    That’s the discrepancy I do not understand

    it is now showing h2{font-size:140%;color:#05AFF2} It could have taken a while because you are using a minified version that is coming from a cdn
