Try adding #page at the beginning of your selectors.

Like this?

Hi there, yes adding #page will make your css more specific. If it's happened since a recent update then also try refreshing/flushing your permalinks if that doesn't work.
Just go to settings>permalinks and hit save, then refresh. I'm looking on your site though in firefox and it looks like all your css is loading correctly.

Strange, I tried both the #page, and permalink thing, plus I've cleared my caches and used other browsers...still no love over here.
The most glaring thing I'm seeing is the big white padding around the BookLamp banner. Is that showing for you, James? The banner should blend into the background just like on

Ok in that case I see the same as you, i was looking at the booklamp.org link thinking that was your site.
Looking in the source code for the storytime site the custom css isn't showing, all that's in there in its place is the below css and it doesn't refer to any particular section.
How are you adding your css? In the custom code box, via base theme or customize plugin?
Are you seeing any css/less error messages in the wp admin bar?
Have you migrate or moved the site directories around at all?

Interesting, so it sees the values but not the selectors?
But no, no error messages. It's rather confounding.

Is there meant to be anything on that page as it's coming up with a 404. Has this site always been set up into this sub-directory? Nothings been moved?
Disable all third party plugins see if anything causing issues there.
Have you placed any code in the functions.php or entered any scripts anywhere?

There is, sorry I messed up the link. I've now fixed it above and here it is again:
And yeah, it's always been in that sub, didn't move anything. I'll try the plugins. Haven't altered the functions or put any scripts aside from footer ones like Google Analytics.

Ok no worries, could you can a screenshot of the custom code page too for us with the code in so we can take a look :-)
Posted 04 January 2013 - 06:31 PM
Sure, here it is in it's current state...

Really? I feel pretty silly now. Then again it's kind of weird a bracket would appear due to updating my site, but everything is now in working order. Thanks James!
