Title: New or Random CSS conflicts with theme Last modified: August 22, 2016 --- # New or Random CSS conflicts with theme * Resolved anonymized-9246034 * (@anonymized-9246034) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-or-random-css-conflicts-with-theme/) * Developers need to realize that an update and a complete overall scraping are two different things. I won’t get into another plugin that did a drastic change some months ago and caused a flood of issues since it is a popular plugin. * On topic. Aside from having to change all the download links, which should take about a day of unpaid work, there’s a CSS file in the plugin that has somehow overriding the style.css of the theme I’m using. The file or line is from /download- manager/css/front.css * .light { background: linear-gradient(to bottom, #b56aab 93%, #f6f6f6 100%) repeat scroll 0 0 #ffffff; border: 0 solid #dcdcdc; box-shadow: 0 1px 0 0 #ffffff; color:# 666666; cursor: pointer; display: inline-block; text-decoration: none; text-shadow: 0 1px 0 #ffffff; } * What is relevance of this line or file that it conflicts with themes? * I deleted the file since it served no purpose in the Dashboard or on the public side of the site. * How well was this tested? Is it the case of putting it out there waiting for the thousands that use the plugin to report the issues and then correct it? * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/download-manager/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/download-manager/) Viewing 3 replies - 1 through 3 (of 3 total) * Plugin Author [Shahjada](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codename065/) * (@codename065) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-or-random-css-conflicts-with-theme/#post-5497371) * Extremely sorry for your trouble, it is not overall scraping, the plugin is now just using custom post type, and it was hard for us to manage the way it was. * You just have to migrate data from Downloads >> Settings >> Migrate . The migration is require as with v2.7 wpdm moved to custom post type for better performance and security. you still can get back to v2.6.96 from here [https://wordpress.org/plugins/download-manager/developers/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/download-manager/developers/) * But if you want to stay with v2.7 ( which actually will be really best decision), please let me know what you want to change, so that I can tell you specially about the required changes. * Thread Starter anonymized-9246034 * (@anonymized-9246034) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-or-random-css-conflicts-with-theme/#post-5497452) * The migration worked perfectly, but then I still have to go in and change the shortcodes on each page. * I will stick with the new version, but you have to address why there was an issue with the css file. A css conflict is rare when dealing with update/upgrade conflicts. * Plugin Author [Shahjada](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codename065/) * (@codename065) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-or-random-css-conflicts-with-theme/#post-5497476) * You don’t have to change file short-codes, old short-code will work for migrated files. But need to change category short-codes. And install free add-ons from here [http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/downloads/free-add-ons/](http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/downloads/free-add-ons/) to add additional features. * I’m adjusting css file and updating plugin within next 24 hours.
