    I attempted to change the text color in the css code and it seems that my columns are gone.I am using the celestial aura theme and my site is https://littlehandprints.net. I have also tried to go in and delete the celestial aura theme and reinstall it, but when I went to wp-content/themes I did not see any file that said celestial aura and I can not find it anywhere. Does anyone have the default code to celestial aura or have any advice on how to fix my site? Thanks!

  • You somehow dumped a bunch of code in the top part of your stylesheet. There’s a link at the bottom of your page that goes to the theme’s site; get a fresh copy and upload it.

    Something has been accidentally moved around while editing the style sheet. It has to start with
    Theme Name: Celestial Aura
    and the other info by the author, while it starts with .pinglist and other declarations that were originally at the end of the sheet. When I moved those down, the colums appeared again.

    The theme folder must be there, I was able to view the stylesheet. If this is the only thing you tried to edit, you only need to upload a fresh copy of style.css

    Odd that you can’t see the celestial-aura folder, in the themes directory. Try to switch back to the default theme for troubleshooting.

    @songdogtech – sorry for the double, I didn’t realize it had been answered already, while I was looking for the problem ??

    Thank you both…I got rid of the code at the top of the style sheet and put it in its proper place now it is back to normal. If I were to upload a fresh copy of style.css, how would i do that?

    @buddha: that’s fine; “help collisions” happen a lot around here…..

    @littlehandprints: if the blog looks/works OK now, no need to get a new copy of the stylesheet. If you find you need to later on, download a copy of the theme with ftp to your PC and then upload just style.css to wp-content/themes/celestial-aura/
