CSS Edits do not load

    Hi there,

    I cannot change my CSS on my .org site. I’ve used the child editor, as well as the main editor, and nothing changes. Specifically, I’d like to change the color of the text area and the fonts. I’ve made these changes and none of them apply.

    My web site is wisterians.com and I am running the Inkhive theme.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Brooke

    Hey there lucysnow77,

    Hope you’re well! 🙂

    Try this code to put in your child theme’s style.css:

    .contact-form textarea {
    background: #FCFBE3;
}

    What font do you want to use instead? Make sure that the font you want to use is already linked. Read this answer from Stackoverflow to gave you idea on how to use web font: http://stackoverflow.com/a/12144181/3152290

    Let me know if it helps! 🙂

    Take care,
    Calvin

    Thanks, Calvin. I appreciate it. I just tried putting the code into the child theme and into the editor, and just like before, nothing changes. It’s not cookies – my browser is refreshing and I’m checking on multiple computers. I seem to not be able to change anything. I’m completely at a loss. (I was trying to use this font: ‘Josefin Slab’, serif;

    This CSS looks like it’s invalid – where did you get “textarea” from?

    textarea {
    color: #fcfbe3;
    font-size: 1.6rem;
    line-height: 1.5;
}

    I haven’t done anything recently but type in new fonts and hex colors. It is possible I tried something months ago when I was first trying to change this.

    I just deleted it from the child theme and, I believe, from the editor and… nothing changed.

    You might want to check your child theme and see if it’s actually pulling from the child theme’s stylesheet for the admin styles. It might still be pulling from the parent theme.
