    Formatting suddenly went totally wacky

    Posted 8 years 11 months ago
    • I saved a small edit to my override file and the next time I loaded the page, formatting hell broke loose. I reverted to earlier known good versions of the override template, but the problem persists.

      I'm using the Chimera template.

      Here's the before screenshot:

      I have NO clue to what your "override file" is, can you be a bit more specific?

      Okay that's a start - now how about a URL?

      That'sthe above page, but the whole site is screwed up.

      Your rt_chimera-custom.css is empty? I was under the impression you had code there? The pagesurround is set to a dark colour and I take it that it was a light colour before the "incident"

    • You have a lot of errors on this site -> http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.shavershebang.com%2Fen-in%2F

      Most are harmless but these are PAGE-KILLERS -> "No p element in scope but a p end tag seen"
      This means you've got an unbalanced <p> tag somewhere's.
      Start Unpublishing your newest content one at a time and run the Validation link. If the error disappears you know there's something wrong with that content.

    • Wow. Thanks Dan. That is very strange. I use the FTP in Notepad++, which seemed to save correctly but apparently somehow kept saving an empty file. I restored it via another FTP program.

      Now all is well. :-) Thanks so much!

      I see that your using J3 so there is an easier way to enter custom code. See my guide, Your first CSS custom file - OR - LESS custom file
      and check out the section about editing your custom CSS in your Template Manager ;)
