    Oh, the first screen shot is the quiz BEFORE taking the quiz.

    Hello brideoflinux,
    I’m starting to think your site hates me. Once again, this is probably a local cache issue with your front end refusing to load the new css updates.

    Are you able to open the developer console and select one of those areas? Can you show me the CSS your browser is rendering in a screenshot?

    For me the areas are hidden and the console css verifies it.

    Are you able to edit your theme css? Maybe adding the updated css to your theme style will force it to render correctly for you.

    Okay, looking at the page source gets really weird, because the complete text of the quiz shows up not once but twice between the <head></head> tags. This isn’t happening on other pages on my site:

    Well, it’s most likely a plugin conflict. I want to keep using your plug in. I’ve got another site I’m not maintaining that uses the same theme. I’ll install your plugin along with all the plugins I’m using on FOSS Force and see if I can find the conflict. I’ll let you know.

    Honestly, only have one theory, and it’s pretty fringe.

    You mentioned you are using a CDN correct? I find it strange that the only affected areas are the new areas added in and related to CSS.

    As I said before, your site is showing up beautifully for me across all devices, and even friends I’ve sent the link to are seeing it correctly.

    I’m 99% sure that the problem is that you are not getting the updated css file, so my theory is that your local CDN server still has the old one cached, while the server closest to me updated correctly.

    Can you please try deactivating, then deleting HD QUiz, then download and install this custom version?

    All this custom version does is insert the following CSS directly onto the page, bypassing the CSS file.

    #hdQuestionnaireContent .questionContent {
    display: none;
    margin-top: 12px;
    padding: 12px;
    background: #E3E3E3;
}

    If this works for you, then it proves my theory and fixes your problems!

    Mr. HarmonicDesign guy,

    Hey, you certainly go the extra mile in supplying support for a free plugin. It worked like a charm. Questions are showing up without the extended text answers, then after the test, wrong answer text explanations are showing up just like the program promises. ??

    It occurs to me that this could be either a CDN problem, as you assume, or it could be some kind of weird caching problem at the ISP level. Using several ISPs over the years I’ve had weird DNS problems after moving a site from one server to another (months after the move, the ISP’s domain lookup service was suddenly returning to the old IP address). This could be something similar.

    Anyway, thank you, thank you, thank you for your excellent user support. If you ever decide to do a premium version of your plugin, let me know. We cover WordPress security issues and such. We’ll figure out a way to get you some free advertising.

    I’m glad it worked, and I appreciate your generous offer. This certainly was a unique problem and I’m glad I was able to resolve this for you. I do like a challenge haha.
