 * I’m making custom CSS changes, that I know should work based not only on my experience
   and proficiency with CSS and HTML, but on the fact that these changes work in“
   Inspect” mode on the browser, but do not make the actual change we are looking
   for on the “front-side”. Specifically, I am trying simply to “hide” the ever-
   annoying page titles (nobody uses page titles from the theme anymore!), using
   the code:
 * .hentry .title-post {
    display: none; }
 * I’ve even tried adding “!important;” to the value, but nothing I do is showing
   up on the front side!! Why?!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fcustom-css-not-making-any-difference%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@bradenanderson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bradenanderson/),
 * As checked, your CSS code contains an error.
 *     ```
       /*Inner Page Title Delete*/
       .hentry .title-post {display: none !important;}
       ```
   
 * Try replacing it to
 *     ```
       /* Inner Page Title Delete */
       .hentry .title-post {display: none !important;}
       ```

 * Really? I mean, anything between is /**/ is just commented out, is that space
   really going to make a difference?! I don’t see how it could.
 * Update: I just tried, and no, that didn’t make a difference…. Any other ideas?
   It’s like the theme just isn’t acknowledging any custom CSS.
