Sorry, this plugin is available for use only on self-hosted (WordPress.org) websites. ### My Custom CSS isn’t showing up There are several reasons this could be happening: * Your CSS is targeting the wrong selector. * Your CSS selectors aren’t specific enough. For instance, you may have: ``` a { color: #f00; } ``` When you need: ### content a { color: #f00; } The specificity you need depends upon the CSS rules you are attempting to override. * Your CSS isn’t valid. Please check your CSS at the [W3C CSS Validation Service](http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/#validate_by_input+with_options"). ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/9ae2b1e0791d8cd3de3714508719042ced03d5165dbf425834e5487a4a3638e2? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Simple and Lightweight](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simple-and-lightweight-11/)󠁿 [chrisedev](https://profiles.wordpress.org/chrisedev/) October 4, 2017 Easy, clean and simple.
