[Theme: Twenty Eleven] Problems seeing CSS after uploading style.css to server

    Hey Guys,

    I am using the Twenty Eleven theme (well, currently a Child theme of it) and it seems as though every time I upload my style.css to the server, it will not show on my page. Then sometimes it miraculously will show, until I edit the style.css again and upload it to the server. Right now, it is refusing to show up again and so here I am on the forum.

    I have searched around and yes, there is the correct header in style.css.

    Also, I have cleared my browser’s caches. I’ve tried on other browsers and other computers as well, and the same thing happens on all of them.

    Right now, it looks like plain HTML with no CSS styling.

    I have a hunch that it is one of my plugins but I am not positive. I am using these plugins:
    Akismet
    All-in-One Calendar by Then.ly
    Dynamic Widgets Dynamic Widgets
    Embed Facebook
    Hello Dolly
    NextGEN Gallery
    Q and A
    Riva Slider Pro (This one might be the problem, its caused some issues for me before)
    Simple Sitemap
    Sub Pages widget
    TPG Get Posts
    Twenty Eleven Theme Extensions
    Wordpress Page Widgets
    WP-chgFontSize
    YouTube Channel
    Youtube Channel Plugin

    I’ve looked through my error logs but I’m not sure I understand most of what its saying. However, it seems like mostly minor things. I haven’t gotten any “Fatal Errors” or anything like that. But this is really an issue for me, since I kind of need CSS to be working.

    Here is the site: mlsmorchestra.com

    and I am using WordPress 3.3.2 I believe. Well, the latest version.

    Any help or ideas of what to try would be awesome. Thanks.

  • See: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Child_Themes and make sure that your /child-theme/style.css is importing the stylesheet from Twenty Eleven.

    /*
Theme Name: Twentyeleven Child
Description: Child theme for the twentyeleven theme
Author: Your name here
Template: twentyeleven
*/

@import url("../twentyeleven/style.css");

}

    Yes, I am importing the stylesheet from Twenty Eleven. I re-added it just to be sure, and it is in there for sure.

    Any other suggestions?

    What’s the URL please?

    it was mslmorchestra.com but actually I fixed it. For some strange reason, my header.php cleared of all the code. I don’t know why. But this is why my style.css wasn’t showing, it wasn’t even being called. So, I copied the header.php contents from twenty eleven, pasted it into my child theme and bada bang bada boom, it worked. Thanks for your help though!

    amazing diagnosis!

    Arg. I thought I had resolved the issue, but it seems as though I am still having trouble with my layout. Actually, I noticed that not all of my style.css has been broken. Only partially, especially pertaining to the layout. My background color is still there, same with the color of the links but that’s about where it stops. The rest is mush…

    Here is the link: https://www.mslmorchestra.com

    I hope someone can help me out here.

    I re-uploaded the core files of wordpress and just put in again the wp-content file. Also, I deactivated every single plugin and it still will not resolve. So, I am thinking, it might be something to do with either the theme or wordpress or neither and its something I haven’t thought of yet.

    Thanks for the help!

    Alright, so since this theme I am using is a Child theme of Twenty eleven, I thought that maybe it was a theme issue so I re-uploaded a brand new version of twenty eleven. And now it seems like magically my site is back to normal.

    Whew! WordPress can really throw you for a loop…

    Anyways, I will post again if any more “issues” arise.

    What is missing? I keep getting a failure to upload/install because the style.css is not included.

    @import url(“../twentyeleven/style.css”);

    }

    #site-title a {
    color:#6600cc;
    font-family:”Times New Roman”, serif; align=”left”;
    }

    #access {
    background:#6600cc;
    color: #cc6600
    }

    a:link, a:visited {
    color: #cc6600;
    }

    a:hover, a:active {
    color: #cc9900;
    }

    body {
    font-family: Candara, “Lucida Sans Unicode”, “Lucida Sans”,
    “Trebuchet MS”, “Lucida Grande”, “Bitstream Sans Vera”,
    Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, Sans-Serif;
    }
