I’m working on correcting a styling of an element on an WP-based eCommerce site.
The site has both SCSS and CSS files.
To make things quick, I edited the CSS via Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS.
However, when I was done and published my changes (and solved the issue), only those new to the website sees the difference.
Those who have visited the site prior to the deployment of the solution, still see the distorted number layout
I also suspected that the SCSS gets compiled every refresh but when I checked the File Manager (cPanel), only the CSS files get modified.
I’m feeling this might be a cache-related issue. I have already disabled a cache plugin (WP Rocket). However, the problem still persists.
What possible issue am I experiencing?
Edit: I did try to use Incognito and the change did reflect. However, the users of the site are non-techy people and don't know how to refresh.
The site is using GoDaddy as the host. Is it possible the issue is on that part?
Thank you

Morning everyone, i'm having a super weird issue with my recent wordpress migration. I moved the (working) site to another webspace and i'm slowly running out of ideas (jk, already ran out).
Issue: After the migration, the plugin Visual Composer is outputting nonsense image links to the frontend that look like this: https://i.imgur.com/7RocCmE.png instead of the uploaded images url. Result: No images are showing on the frontend.
This issue only happens when i use the single image block provided by VC itself. Inputting an image the wordpress way, inside of a text block, works.
What could be the reason for this? i'm super thankful for any advice since i'm not a programmer.
I have already tried:
Enabling wp debug, not getting any errors
Installing different versions of Visual Composer, multiple times
Reinstalling Wordpress, multiple times
disabling all plugins
completely reinstalling and reuploading everything from scratch
different php versions
As I saw in your screenshot with the src attribute of your image and it has data-src attribute also, I think that it's because the new site (or maybe the new hosting) is using lazy load which will update all images source of the site to the lazy load image for better performance.
Lazy load images mean that the image won't load at the beginning, when you start to scroll down to each section, the images of this section will be loaded. In this way, the site will be optimized and won't load many resources at the beginning.
I think you can:
Check if there is any cache plugin installed, try to deactivate this plugin.
Check with the hosting provider if there is any cache setting installed, try to deactivate this setting also.
See if the image is working in the backend or not, if it's still loaded in the backend, I'm pretty sure that it's the cache issue. If it doesn't load in the backend, I think there is something wrong with your theme source code.
Compare the hosting environment, especially the PHP version of the old and new site to see if there is any differences.
I am not able to edit the Wordpress site at all. The dashboard looks like its not loading css. But also the links are not working, each time I press anything on the bare-looking dashboard, it takes me to Page not found. I am facing this issue because I changed the admin password from phpMyadmin using cPanel. From that moment, this is all messed up. It would be awesome if I get a solution for this. (Ps. I do have a backup of the site but it is old, so it does not have a lot of changes done recently, so I cannot roll back to old version
If you are using any cache plugin, then deactivate it, clear your browser cookies, also try to access it from different IP from another place.
Also, check this link for a better understanding.
Recently installed Wordpress on my website and on my first time visiting the new install, I noticed that there was absolutely no styling whatsoever. I have included an image below just to show what I mean.
How would I go about fixing this? I have tried clearing my cache and all that but I doubt that would do anything since this was my first time visiting the page.
Realised it was due to the fact that I had a domain change. When I inspected the page I noticed that none of the links had been updated so I needed to do a fresh install.
I'm working on a wordpress theme previously coded by another developer. I had some trouble migrating it to another server because of a cache plugin called memcache and now I'm not able to remove a body background from this css file. The developer made two instances where he called a body background image in style.css and master.css. I changed the background even deleted the old one and its still not changing. I Cleared my cache several times even tried it on another machine. I checked it on developer tools and it shows up on 2 different style sheets both of them I changed only 1 is crossed out. If i uncheck that style in developer tools it removes it but I can't figure out why it's not changing. Could a cacheing system the previous developer installed be the issue here?
Try disabling the cache or clearing it from the server. It is the style.css is cached with the server and pulling from there, with higher expirations dates and serving it away from querying the database on every visit. This is a common problem with any caching plugin for Wordpress.
I had a similar problem once after activating Ubercart modules. Certain pages would not render the theme, though all the content was there. I went into performance settings and optimized CSS and all was fine. I heard this was due to too many css files being called at once. The optimize CSS setting streamlines them.
Today though I went tweak a css file and the theme broke again. I restored my edits and still no luck. So I tried other themes including zen and garland and still they all seem to be broken; none of them are rendering though all my contend is there. I've also tried various settings under performance and cleared the cache.
I should also note I'm having the same issues in various web browsers.
I'm not sure it is relevant but I this is a pre-production site online. I moved the directory path recently, but other than a few absolute links I had to change all came out OK. But I wonder if the path to my themes somehow might be an issue?
Thanks in advance for any advice...
Without seeing your broken site we cannot say that happen.
