Customize Theme

Permalink
I've been experimenting with the CSS stylesheet of my theme and now that I've gone back to the theme's Customize Theme page in the dashboard I'm seeing multiple color picker squares/slots for each option. See attached image. They are duplicates and all change if edited so they still work but I'm wondering how to get back to just one slot. I've cleared the cache several times, cleared the browser cache, uploaded the original stylesheet, etc. Nothing seems to be working. I even tried to find where these custom colors are stored (database, site files) to no avail. Could this be a JavaScript/JQuery issue? The other themes are fine with only one color picker showing for each option. The CSS file seems to be correct with this type of code for the different options (one instance per option):
#page-wrap {
   /* customize_page_wrap_background_color */background-color: #FFFFFF;/* customize_page_wrap_background_color */ 
}

Is there a way to correct this short of uninstalling the theme and then re-installing (assuming that would work)? Several of the theme's blocks are being used on the site and I don't want to mess up the content by uninstalling. If that's an incorrect assumption, please let me know.

Thanks,
Hope

This will happen if you repeat the 'name' of a particular style you want to customise. But as you said, you replaced the original.

Try looking at the 'cached' css file and modify it.

View the source of your website, click to view the css. Is it the modified or the original?

Thanks. Will definitely check it out. I think the problem may be in repeating a selector in the DIY nav stylesheet but we'll see. Thanks again!

Odd... There are some style selectors not repeated yet they show up with more than one color slot.

As far as cached CSS, nothing is cached at the moment but even if it was, I can see the changes with a refresh when I revert to the original CSS so I have to assume the CSS isn't cached. Even so, I have cleared the cache and viewing the source code shows the most recently uploaded CSS file. I'm stumped.

Is this local or live?

Everything is cached. Go to site - files, look for the css folder, then look for the css file pertaining to your theme, Is it the right one?

Does not matter if you change the themes css, look at your cached css, is it the same as your current theme css?

Some style changes will behave, some will not.

If you could give me a url to look at I might be able to help further.

Not yet live. I checked the cache and yes, it's the correct one. Thanks for your help. I guess as long as the color slots don't continue to multiply then I will leave it for now. But thanks for the tip about the cache folder. Good information!
