I'm working on my website, matthewbellanalytics.com, and I have been trying to make some changes to the contact.css CSS of the contact page. I edited the CSS file and the changes that I was seeing offline weren't reflected online.
Specifically, I changed the background-color:blue, which worked offline as seen here:
I then replaced that file on my hostgator server and I double checked that it was replaced correctly by re-downloading the CSS file from my cPanel.
background-color:blue was definitely still part of the code.
But when I view the website online. background-color:blue, is mysteriously not part of the CSS file anymore.
I assumed this must be a caching issue so I cleared the cache on both firefox and chrome, but still no luck. I then tried opening the website on Opera which I haven't done before so there should be no cache. No luck.
The online page still isn't updating to blue, and looks like this:
Check the css file path. In server the path might vary.
I was able to solve it in chrome, but not firefox, by going into the developer tools and disabling the cache from there under the "network" tab. No other method of clearing cache seems to work.

I just reinstalled windows on my computer. The problem here is that when I was using the visual code editor before reinstalling windows with the live preview extension and it ran perfectly, but now after I installed windows the VC do not give me live preview like before.
It is just showing the HTML structure and not the linked CSS and Javascript files. There is no styling and formatting being shown on the page even though the page displays perfectly on the browser, tried everything but nothing worked. Note that both windows versions are the same no changes in them.[Only HTML shows up][1]
[no definitions found said by vs code editor also]
Yes, it only shows the HTML preview without CSS. You have to use "Live Server" extension for that.
Download that from here:

Preview:
does a .vs code folder appear ? This problem happened to me once and by deleting the file everything went back to normal. IDK if it will work for you but it worked for me.
BTW there is a Youtube video on that topic, here it is a video for CSS files not working on live server
I recently added some text effects to my website in HTML and CSS. It runs perfectly on VS Code live sever but whenever I upload the code files on to my cpanel, the effects just seem to go away when I actually click and go on my website and I am not sure why. Does anyone know a fix for this? Here is my website julianwsanchez.com
And this how it is supposed to look:
How It Looks When I open it:
The output I'm seeing on your site matches the output of the code snippet here, effects and all.
Check to see if you have some browser extension that affects the way a site might look (e.g. a dark mode extension). Also, try going to your site in a different browser and/or in Incognito mode.
it Works for me just fine, both the link given, and the files running on localhost
You might need to do a hard reload.
try Ctrl-Shift-R on chrome when viewing the page.
This clears the browsers cache for that webpage,
alternative: open the web page in another browser.
Hi I'm kinda stuck on idea's to try to solve my problem since I don't have much experience concerning caches.
I'm currently working on this site of a business partner of me.
I got his host, username and password so I'm litterary working as him using Filezilla.
I downloaded the entire site content from filezilla into a desktopfolder.
I made a copy of it to work in and from there I made some changes in the .html and .css files.
In offline mode, everythings works perfectly as I want it.
Then I deleted the the sitecontent in Filezilla and replaced it with my changes.
Now the weird parts happen.
When I open the site online without www. prefix it works great
when I open the site online with www. prefix I can't see the images that are
placed within div's that purely concern the image
When a pc opened the site in the first 3 houres it was online, the div's don't
work
Also later on that specific pc can't make the div's to work
Pc's that opened the site only after these 3 houres have no problem at all
I've tried replacing the stylesheet and wait a couple hours, but caches seem to be made. and the result stays the same.
However this is no problem for the avarage customer since for them the site works, you can see what a hell this may be for me as developer and the owner, who offcourse opened the site right after I put it online.
Any suggestions might be usefull.
In most of the browsers you can use F12 shortcut to see the developer tools. In Network tab you can see all files that are currently being loaded. You can see there if the file is being loaded from the server or from the local machine.
By pressing CTRL+F5 (in Chrome and think in Firefox too) you are forcing cache to refresh.
If the PC is still loading in a cached version of the site, you can refresh the page and delete the cache by holding Control + F5.
Seems like I found the source of the problem.
I was using the css from a bought template which has some coding that malfunctions when ftp-uploading using ASCII
Uploading Binary solves the problem
The reason the did work on some computers was that they had the old css still cached. which was earlyer uploaded in binary instead of the same css files i uploaded in ASCII.
So I've uploaded my html, css and js files via Pydio. But the site seems to get messed up. Can anyone tell me what happened to it and how to fix it?
Some of the google font I used shows up but some didn't. Also, the bootstrap grid doesn't show up like its supposed to be. The site also didn't scale according to screen size.
When I preview the website in Brackets, it looks perfectly fine.
Please help.

I think that you forgot to upload some files.
Here is the list :
( click on the image to zoom in )
Sounds to me that you did not upload everything or there are some absolute paths in your code. If you copy everything you uploaded to another local machine, does it work then?
You can actually see which files are missing if you open the online version of your page in your webbrowser and have a look at the developer console (press F12 in Chrome, Ctrl+Shift+I in Firefox). In the console all missing files are stated in the logged errors.
Thanks to Relisora we even have a screenshot of the error console:
Check if you uploaded all files and if so, check their path and link tags.
I'm trying to get LiveReload to work with a local website I'm coding for now, but it won't seem to work. On non-local pages, the extension icon is clickable and all, but for local files, it's not: http://i.imgur.com/qrMDo.png
Does it not work with local files? I have it added within the app. Or does it not work with ML? It works if I add the script to the HTML file, but I'd prefer not to.
It seems to me that it is a bug.
It was reported here. I have exactly the same problems in Safari.
Just use different browser, if you can. It works great in Firefox for me.
