Forum:Wikia.css does not load in Safari or IE

Forums: Admin Central Index → Admin Forum: →

I just edited my Wikia.css a bit and the result looks fine in Firefox, but not a single of the attributes is applied in Safari or IE. At first I assumed there was something wrong with my CSS:

but it seems Wikia.css does not even load. At all. How come? I can see it at work Firefox! Is it because I'm logged in in FF?

 * Hi Pecoes. :) Have you tried clearing your cache by pressing CTRL-F5 or clearing it from browser settings? The 888th Avatar   (talk)  09:43, January 29, 2012 (UTC)


 * Oh. That worked. I'll be damned. I did that. I swear I did that! On top of that I didn't even open IE and Safari until I was happy with the CSS!


 * Is there a delay between editing the Wikia.css and the deployment? Maybe that's why I couldn't see it...

 * Usually, for Wikia.css, there isn't a significant delay between it being edited and its changes being applied, so simply clearing browser cache does the trick. :) There are some other parts of the wiki that do cache on the server side though, and those need to be cleared by appending ?action=purge to the URL in the address bar and reloading the page.

 * Alright. I'll purge the cache next time then. Thank you very much!
