Milada 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2018 Hi all, I found this code <div class="content-box-purple">text</div> to use for a box in a post. I copied this code: /* Content Box ------------------------------------------------------------ */ .content-box-purple { margin: 0 0 25px; overflow: hidden; padding: 20px; } .content-box-purple { background-color: #e2e2f9; border: 1px solid #bebde9; } to a style.css file. However, the box does not show in the post. I checked all plugins for compatibility and when deactivating them all, the box still does not show. Do you have an idea of what might be wrong? Thank you, Milada Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ingolme 971 Report post Posted March 22, 2018 I see no obvious errors in that code. It could be that the stylesheet was not included properly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dsonesuk 874 Report post Posted March 22, 2018 Not quite sure what 'box in post' really refers to, or even what plugins relate to either? plugins for what? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Milada 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2018 Hello Ingolme, thank you for understanding the issue. What do you mean by stylesheet was not included properly? Thank you. Kind regards, Milada Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ingolme 971 Report post Posted March 23, 2018 That means that there is no link to the stylesheet or the path to the stylesheet is incorrect. What code did you write to use the stylesheet? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Milada 0 Report post Posted March 24, 2018 I see, thank you Ingolme. So probably there is no link to the stylesheet. I used this code: " /* Content Box ------------------------------------------------------------ */ .content-box-purple { margin: 0 0 25px; overflow: hidden; padding: 20px; } .content-box-purple { background-color: #e2e2f9; border: 1px solid #bebde9; } " which I simply copied to a style.css file. There is something wrong with this, is there? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ingolme 971 Report post Posted June 15, 2018 There has to be a <link> tag in your document and that tag needs to have the correct URL for your stylesheet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
