    I built this site and the stylesheet won't update. I've cleared all the caches, checked on different computers visiting the site for the first time and it's not showing correctly... Except for on Chrome.

    Safari and Firefox won't see all the stylesheet changes. I've cleared history/cache. Restarted. Cleared cache via the terminal. Chatted with Bluehost and cleared the server cache. All widget changes show up. Its just the stylesheet.

    When I view source in Google Chrome is says
    http://www.jennyrichvo.com/wp-content/themes/altitude-pro/style.css?ver=1.1.2

    When I view the source in Safari and Firefox it is the same
    http://www.jennyrichvo.com/wp-content/themes/altitude-pro/style.css?ver=1.1.2
    But when I check the code it's showing old code before I changed it.

    I'm not sure why or how to get it to read the latest version... Help!

    Please post a link to a specific element that has "new" CSS. You may have missed something, changed CSS too early in the file, or are being overridden by inline CSS. Your post is vague as to what changes you've made.

    Quite often, you may have to hold down the shift key when refreshing a page in the browser to make sure the latest style sheet downloads.

    Sure, I'm sorry. I make a lot of font and color changes mainly, among others, but here is an example. Let me know if you need any other info.

    This is older style that is showing:

    .solid-section {
    background-color: #fff;
    }

    And the new change should be:

    .solid-section {
    background-color: #8bba36;
    }

    Also, if this helps.
    This is what it's supposed to look like (and does in Chrome)

    And this is how it's looking elsewhere. Even when checking on new computers that haven't visited it before.

    There's something really weird going on with this. In Chrome, the block with green starts at line 1478 in style.css. In Firefox the block with white starts at line 1468. None of this makes sense since the line numbers should be the same in both browsers. It's almost as if they are seeing different files.

    I would try to force the issue by bumping up the style.css version number to 1.1.3. You would change this in the file's header comment block.

    Bumped up the version and it didn't change anything.

    I moved the site over to my account:
    http://www.kathyosborne.com/jennytest/

    And the most recent changes show on all browsers. However, if I make any style changes they don't take. Not even on Chrome now.

    Both sites are on Bluehost, so I moved the site to another hosting to see if it was that. http://www.kathyosbornedesign.com/

    And the same thing is happening. Any new style changes I test will not show.

    But all content changes show. So text changes, deactivating plugins, etc.

    Its strange because I use the Altitude theme all.the.time. I am currently building another site with it and am not having any issues. Thinking I had done something to break it, I had reinstalled a new version and added all my styling slowly back, but its the same thing.
