Cached CSS usurping theme settings??

    This plugin has worked great for our site for a few years now. However, once we upgraded to WP 5.9 and auto-updated all plugins, I had this very weird orange color start popping up all over the place (on buttons, links, text, etc.)

    I have looked through every conceivable color setting and no where is this orange color indicated.

    Finally, I used Firefox web developer tool to try and track down where this is coming from. It is showing me the “offending” style sheet is located:

    wp-content/cache/autoptimize/css/autoptimize_single_c7b47dfe51189fcd29c00ab535849f5f.css

    After googling around I stumbled on the blog entry you did noting these cached style sheets were a known problem that had been fixed. Thinking maybe this was just an old cached version that stemmed from that issue, so I tried to delete them and it just recreated them (and the orange color persists).

    Any idea where this might come from or how to modify it???

    Thanks in advance,

    Brent

    ah, afraid the original CSS-file (before optimization) is /wp-content/uploads/hummingbird-assets/c69757b374b3b69a1d53e131c75a7a2a.css actually kapricious. I would strongly suggest disabling CSS/ JS optimization in Hummingbird when using Autoptimize to avoid any possible conflict. If the problem persists with Hummingbird disabled, I’ll be happy to (try to) identify the culprit file for you ??

    hope this helps,

    Frank,

    You are a life saver. Disabled hummingbird and everything is exactly as it should be. Thank you so much. How the heck did you figure that out if you don’t mind sharing your secrets?!?! ??

    Thank you again, you’re amazing.

    Morning Brent;
    No secrets; I view-sourced the homepage HTML, took note of the id in front of the file you mnetioned and then view-sourced the unoptmized HTML (by adding ?ao_noptimize=1 to the URL) which turned out to be the hummingbird one ??

    feel free to leave a review of the plugin and support here! ??

    what did you disable to fix the issue with the theme colour/design?
