Can you provide a link to the site?
fitnesstraingingelite.com
It’s still loading style.css and the bootstrap stylesheet, but this is really weird. A friend of mine said that sometimes WordPress automatically updates and causes things to break, but this is pretty extreme to have the entire nav bar gone, background image, colors, etc.
It’s not loading my custom.css sheet anymore. What could have caused that and how do I get it to load again?
Did you have a child theme? Or did you edit the theme’s style sheet?
Link isn’t working.
I edited custom.css which is supposed to override style.css, but now isn’t loading.
Have you looked at it with firebug or another developer tool? Can’t look at it because the link you provided doesn’t exist.
Yea, Firebug verified that custom.css isn’t loading. Sorry I misspelled the URL it’s fitnesstrainingelite.com
I figured it out when I looked closely at the name. Do you have a backup of the site,AND within your custom css do you still have your css customization available to copy? If so, copy the css snippets you created and save them in a text file on your computer.
Yes, I have backups of both. Do you know how I can tell it to load custom.css again?
OK you have a free WooTheme “Wootique” which doesn’t offer any support other than the documentation here > http://www.woothemes.com/products/wootique/
Question: Is the custom css you are using a plugin? If so is it active?
If not:
I am not familiar with their themes, but you have a couple options.
1: Read the documentation on their site and see if it provides an answer.
2: Create a Child Theme and use that for your special customizations.
The best way to make changes like this to a theme is to use a child theme, so your tweaks won’t be overwritten when updating the theme. Here are some guides in case you haven’t made one before:

No, I didn’t use a plugin. I made my edits to custom.css in a text editor.
You can try out #Tara’s option if you don’t want to create a child theme, Your Menus are located in your Dashboard > Appearance > Menus :: You may want to make sure your menu is set to the proper location, Probably the TOP PRIMARY MENU. http://codex.wordpress.org/Appearance_Menus_SubPanel
