 * I have made a couple of minor tweaks to the styles.css, increasing the font weight
   of h1, h2 and h3.
 * What causes styles.min.css to update? Is there a way to manually regenerate it?
 * I seem to have some server caches that I can’t easily clear, meaning that the
   style changes are not being reflected, but I wanted to understand how styles.
   min.css is generated / regenerated before spending time clearing caches.
 * Thanks.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fupdate-style-min-css%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi there,
 * Changing core files is never a good idea, as those changes will be lost when 
   you update the theme.
 * Instead, you should add your custom CSS to a child theme style.css file, or a
   CSS plugin: [https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-css/](https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-css/)
 * Just take the block of CSS you’re editing, and copy/paste it into one of those
   methods above.
 * Let me know if you need more info 🙂
