Why won’t Styling affect my API Data?

    Hello!
    I have utilized a plugin called JSON content importer, to pull job lisitngs from a job board into my company’s WP website. I have tried a number of styling avenues, but none seem to affect the API data.

    It was suggested that I use CSS Grid. When I test the CSS Grid styling in my editor and open it in the browser, it looks fine. I have placed CSS Grid and correspondidng HTML in the Editor. That did not work. I have placed those same files in the root Directory in the Cpanel and then when that did not work, specifically in the WP-includes file. I have tried several Job Board plugins, but nothing will style my API data. I think I need to write some code in PHP to make the styling apply to the API data, but I cannot locate an example anywhere. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks so much!!

    Best,

    Dana

    There’s two things you’d need to look at to start with.

    First, what are you using to import the data from the API? There could be settings available in that system that give you some more control.

    Second, what does the data from the API look ike? From your exaple page, there’s a very good chance that the data is being ssaved exactly as it’s being served out. If that’s the case you’ll hafe to use some filters to try and “massage” the content to be laid out as you’d prefer it to be.
