• Hello I made a backup of my WP site. Have been working in the Avada Custom css section. I accidentally removed some work. Can someone please tell where I can find the file that stores the custom css work?

    Thank You

    Thank you, there support seems to be backed up and was hoping for a quick answer.

    I could give a quick answer about every theme that allows peeking inside the code. Unluckily, Avada don’t want that kind of thing. Sorry!

    its a custom css and just need to know where its located so I can retrieve hours of lost work.

    Alright, let’s try a different approach: Can you provide me with a link to your website?

    Here are some css files:

    1. wp-content/themes/Avada/style.css
    2. wp-content/themes/Avada/css/media.css
    3. wp-content/themes/Avada/framework/plugins/LayerSlider/css/layerslider.css
    4. wp-content/themes/Avada/framework/plugins/revslider/rs-plugin/css/settings.css
    5. wp-content/themes/Avada/framework/plugins/revslider/rs-plugin/css/captions.css
    6. wp-content/themes/Avada/framework/plugins/tf-flexslider/assets/css/flexslider.css
    7. wp-content/themes/Avada/framework/plugins/tf-flexslider/assets/css/style.css

    But I suppose you’re trying to find a different one, because it looks like Avada is importing your custom styles directly into each page’s HTML. (See lines 569-1392 in the source code.) I’m afraid that a backup would have been the place to find what you’re looking for.
    Maybe Avada supports version control, but I could really not tell.

    Thank, is no way of knowing what file?

    Thanks

    Using a browser inspecting tool like Firebug can show you which files contain rules for each element. See https://www.themesandco.com/snippet/firebug-best-spent-6-minutes/ for more information.

    DMax, we might as well walk down a random road, then you point to a random house, asking: “Tell me what kinds of wine those people store in their basement.”
    There’s just no way to tell. Please ask Avada on their forum. They’re the ones who bought the wine.

    relly emilyTK! sorry for now being a pro at this and understanding it as well as others. It was just a simple question.

    It was a simple question, and I tried explaining the problem, like I would to anyone. No offense intended, really.

    So to help anyone else with this issue. The answer is, your custom css is stored in a database. I ended up restoring the database which restored my lost work.

    The custom css is stored within the database. You will need to access phpmyadmin and then select:
    wp_options
    Avada_options (this maybe several pages in so make sure you look for it)
    Click edit
    copy the all of the value text (there will be a lot) into word
    search for: custom_css

    the text which follows will be your custom css that you inputed.

    Hope this helps
