[SOLVED] CSS Inserts not working on new site with Atahualpa 3.7.12 & Wordpress 3.7.1

CSS Inserts are not working as usual to style a new site I am building with Atahualpa 3.7.12 and Wordpress 3.7.1.

For example, the following CSS code (which has always worked on previous sites with Atahualpa 3.7.12 and previous Wordpress versions) now does not style the color of the link text with the RSS Post icon:

Code:

a.posts-icon  {

color: #ffffff !important;

}

And, the following code suggested in a forum here, also does not work to style the link text with the RSS posts icon:

Code:

div.rss-box a:link,

div.rss-box a:visited,

div.rss-box a:active {

color: #ffffff; }

Also, the following CSS code (which works on all my other sites with Atahualpa and Wordpress) now does not add borders under "Associated posts" displayed on a page via the post-page associator plugin:

Code:

div.associated-post {

border-bottom: 1px solid #cccccc;

}

This code should work, since the Page source code for the associated posts is:

Code:

<div class="associated-posts">  

    <div class="associated-post">

Are there known issues with CSS Inserts in Atahualpa 3.7.12 with Wordpress 3.7.1? I did not have this problem with the previous site I built - with Atahualpa 3.7.12 and Wordpress 3.5.2.

If necessary, how can I revert back to Wordpress 3.5.2?

Many thanks for any help!

Further to above, apparently others have also had problems with losing CSS styling when they freshly install or upgrade to Wordpress 3.7.1.

See e.g.
http://support.themeburn.com/topic/l...1-nginx-server (suggesting that "The problem is that wp-config.php file is outside the wordpress files," and therefore is not connecting to data base. "If you can't move it to default place go to themefolder/css/screen.css.variables and edit database details.")

See also: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/s...problem-urgent (CSS editor problem after upgrade to Wordpress 3.7.1).

Any ideas on how to correct the CSS editor problem with Wordpress 3.7.1 and Atahualpa 3.7.12?

Many thanks!

Do you have your wp-config.php outside the wordpress root folder?
If so why and what happens if you put it back?

What is the url of the site?

No, don't know that I do "have the wp-config.php outside the wordpress root folder." This was the problem diagnosed for the other person having a similar problem with CSS not working (to which I linked only as an example of others having problems with CSS Editor after installing Wordpress 3.7.1).

Will send you a PM with the url.

Thanks.

Did some more testing - and ATO > CSS Inserts is definitely not working.

Even the following basic CSS Code does nothing:

Code:

td#middle {

border: 2px solid #6f1294;

}

However, strangely, when I made changes within the pre-installed CSS Inserts (styling H1 through H6), that worked. E.g. to change the color of the headlines.

Just any newly added CSS Code does not work. Strange!

P.S. Styling within the other sections of Atahualpa Theme Options does seem to work. It is just the CSS Inserts that appear not to work.

Try this, move your

HTML Code:

a.posts-icon  {

color: #ffffff !important;

}

to the begining of the CSSS Isnserts and see what happens.

That worked!!! Juggledad, you are a Genius!

So, if I add all new CSS inserts above the pre-loaded inserts it works!! Thank you!!

(For the future, it will be interesting to find out why new CSS Inserts added below the pre-loaded code don't take, so someone can fix this in new updates... But, for now your work-around works perfectly!!)

Thanks again!

why don't you look at the css at the end and see if there are any syntax errors. (hint hint)

Yes, that was it. Somehow the pre-inserted CSS code ended with a ")" rather than a "}"

Therefore any CSS code entered after that was not working.

Thanks very much, Juggledad.
