Please Update this Great Plugin

    I have tried all of the custom CSS plugins for WordPress and personally think these are the best options:

    1. My Custom CSS
    2. Simple Custom CSS
    3. Jetpack’s Custom CSS
    4. TJ Custom CSS

    My Custom CSS and Simple Custom CSS are fantastic because they’re both lightweight and also utilize the Browsers “Find Bar” which is awesome!! Jetpack’s Custom CSS module is great because it holds onto revisions which is extremely useful.

    The main issue with My Custom CSS is it hasn’t been updated in over two years. If you view it on the WordPress Repo, there is a huge banner at the top that says:

    “This plugin hasn’t been updated in over 2 years. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress.”

    I’m personally very weary of using any plugins which aren’t actively being maintained. I’m sure there are thousands out there that feel the same way. Why don’t you update this plugin which will remove this banner and allow more users around the world to trust it?

    Ideas:
    ? Do a simple update to the styling of the floating Save button on the top right of the screen.
    ? Update how the plugin looks in the Plugins list (it’s definitely outdated looking).
    ? Add the Revision functionality that the Jetpack module has.

    What are your thoughts on this?

    Cheers and thank you for such a great plugin!

    Thank you for such a quick response and no need to be sorry! We all understand that life happens and things change. ??

    I just wanted to reach out to let you know that I love what you’ve done. By making a “small tweak” here or there, and then releasing the new version, this will remove the “This plugin hasn’t been updated…” notification at the top of the screen which is the only issue that I can find.

    I personally don’t think you need to change anything about the plugin because it’s the best Custom CSS plugin that I have found. Can’t wait to see what you come up with!

    Cheers!

    I really like this plugin as well, but something apparently has changed or broken in it where, in many cases, it no longer ‘overrides’ other CSS in the theme unless using the !important declaration.

    I’d really like to see an update that addresses this. FWIW I’m using the Beaver Builder theme (https://wpbeaverbuilder.com).

    @kcrusher, I also noticed that when using this plugin for my custom CSS, the logo on my site would “glitch” every time I refreshed my browser.

    To troubleshoot, I installed the TJ Custom CSS plugin mentioned above > moved all of my custom CSS over > deleted the My Custom CSS plugin > and then refreshed my browser a few times to see if it still happened. The “logo glitch” went away. Just to make sure, I reinstalled My Custom CSS > moved my custom CSS back over > and tried again.

    Sure enough, My Custom CSS was causing the logo glitch.

    I’m currently using TJ Custom CSS which is a very nice solution being that I’m not using Jetpack. If you’re already using Jetpack, I recommend that you simply activate the Custom CSS module within Jetpack and stop using additional Custom CSS plugins.

    Also @kcrusher, I recently found BeaverBuilder and tried the theme and page builder plugin demos. Looks pretty awesome!! Would you mind shooting me an email to let me know your thoughts? clintmallon at gmail dot com
