Where is Stylesheet??

    So, Godaddy is requesting I put up a Captcha on this page in order to get a ban lifted so my boss can get some emails from potential clients. Malware issues.

    I am an absolute novice at this and haven’t been on this site since July. Everything seems completely different. I was able to mess around with some code (whether it was the stylesheet, CSS pages, idk) but now, it’s completely gone.

    I can’t do anything (code-wise) as I am assuming these Captcha plugins are asking me to alter some coding? I have clicked every link on my WP editing bar on the left of my screen and cannot for the life of me seem to find where this stylesheet went to. I thought it was a plugin but no idea what plugin.

    In a real bind, know nothing, and I’m at a loss. Please help.

    Make sure you don’t edit the theme’s files. When WordPress updates to any version, or when the theme updates, your changes will be erased.

    If you’re making basic CSS changes there is a useful section of the dashboard for this. It’s under ‘Appearance’ and then ‘Customize’ and is labelled as “Additional CSS”.

    You can just put your custom CSS modifications in there. It’s also useful to be able to see all of your CSS modifications in one place so that when things go wrong you’re not wading through thousands of lines of code to see the issue.

    If you’re trying to override some CSS, first use a browser developer tool to diagnose the current CSS. In Chrome for example, you can right click on the thing you want to style and press “Inspect element”. Then a developer tool will appear and show you the HTML on the left-hand panel and CSS on the right-hand panel. If there is CSS being applied then all you need to do is copy those styles and put them into your “Additional CSS” section (and change it there). If there are no styles then you can write your own.
