 * Hi
    I added
 *     ```
       <style type="text/css" media="screen">
       @import url( <?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url'); ?>?<?php echo time(); ?> );
       </style>
       ```
   
 * in the header but it didn’t work.
    I tried this one too but it didn’t work `<
   link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url'); echo '?' . filemtime(
   get_stylesheet_directory() . '/style.css'); ?>" type="text/css" media="screen,
   projection" />.`

 * What exactly are you trying to do? Both of those codes worked for me.

 * If you want to customize the theme’s CSS, you should create a [child theme](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
   or use a Custom CSS plugin such as Jetpack.
