How to Undo a Change

Hi candidapple!

I’m sorry you ran into this. I see that your site is working better now. Is it possible for you to reproduce the issue so I can take a look at it?

Thanks!

John

Hey John, love the Theme man! Great work.

I have the same question as the OP. I’m new to this, figuring it out as I go along, forgive if I don’t know all the technical lingo…

I used Simple Custom CSS to remove the page titles, like this:

.entry-header {display:none;}
.entry-content {margin-top:0}

But that removed ALL the titles, even from my blog posts. Now I want to undo what I did, and I can’t figure out how. Can you help me?

I am having the same problem. I applied some custom css and now i can’t remove it. i’ve deactivated and deleted the plugin but it’s still affecting my whole site and I have no idea where it put it’s custom css.

Hi Traviss,

Can you send a link to your site? I’m glad to take a look.

Hi bneal817,

Can you send me a link to your site as well?

John

Thanks for the reply John. The change did not reverse immediately, but it did eventually. Everything is looking good now, I guess it just took time.

bneal817 Check the caching setting at your host
(forgive me – haven’t started using Simple Custom CSS yet … checking out problems/resolutions being reported before making up my mind … have been manually adding to my custom style.css in my child of twentyeleven and had the problem of modifications not happening until I had gone to bed – upset client emailed next day … was a caching issue at host!)

Undo-ing changes would be a great addition to this useful plugin.

Yes, I have the same question. I downloaded and used it to change the font to bold in the body:

body{font-weight: bold;}

and it did it but in my ignorance did not realize that body meant the top menu also so now that is not cool in bold.

Where did it put the CSS?????????????????

thanks

I simply went back into the software and my change code was still there. I just removed it, updated there, and now the change is gone.

That simple I hope. I’m using WP4.3

So it seems effective; I’m just ignorant and new and do not understand how to write the code. Apparently I should use some other selector; not “body.” Maybe just “font?”

Any suggestions? Why I can’t do this in the style sheet myself is either entirely my ignorance — most likely –or WP is really not very useful to non code experts.

Thanks for posting, everyone.

I’m working on a way to save/restore the latest couple of changes to the CSS so things can be recovered. I’m unable to promise a date when this will be complete, but I hope to have it up with my next update which should be coming out in the next week or so.

Thanks John, I’m looking forward to the update!
