• Hello! Is there a technical (plugin, etc.) or non-technical solution that allows multiple people to edit the site-wide CSS without us saving over eachother?

    THANKS!

    Not really. If you use Jetpack’s custom CSS option then I believe it will preserve revisions but editing CSS really isn’t a group activity. The last one who saves their edit should win. 😉

    Jan,
    Thanks for the quick response. I kinda figured that was the case, but hoped there was some infinite wisdom that knew better.

    Leo on Facebook said, “If your host has git installed on the server, this plugin does what you’re asking. https://wordpress.org/plugins/revisr

    Hey justravis,

    revisr is used to keep revisions of your WordPress. It works on git. But I think it would be too much of work to use revisr just to allow multiple users edit CSS at the same time.

    Also, editing CSS in such a way is not a perfect approach, as far as I know.

    You could install a plugin like Simple Custom CSS and let other people add their CSS using it.

    That keeps the theme’s “official” CSS unblemished.

    You could instruct them not to edit/delete other people’s CSS, only to add new styles to the end.

    Or put their name in a comment like this:

    /* Whoever's CSS
    ------------------------- */

    and they are only allowed to put their own CSS rules in their own section.

    But any way you do it, potentially messy.
