Code changes appear in code editor but do not update real time.

Hi Genesis Friends,

I have hit a wall.. I have been making changes to my site header dimensions in the child theme functions.php file for the Newspro theme. It was working fine for several changes to the dimensions of the site header as I have been trying to get it just right, but then it randomly stopped updated my changes and keeps pulling the original theme site header dimensions even though my code reflects differently. Although my changes have taken effect in the code ( I have checked the code files via FTP, Cpanel, and from the Code Editor in WordPress and they are showing my latest changes), it will not update on the frontend and it still pulling the old site header dimensions. I have cleared my cache, disabled all caching plugins, talked with my hosting provider to make sure there is not a server issue, tried different computers and browsers, and still , it will not update my latest changes that I have made to this file.

Any ideas what is happening??? Help would be so very appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

Just throwing this out there...maybe it's the proxy cache server on your ISP...can't remember the exact name of it...but sometimes those things take awhile to refresh the cache, and no matter what changes you might make and no matter how much you've cleaned out your browser cache, that proxy server will sometimes hang on to its cache for an annoyingly long time...and doesn't seem to be much you can do about it except wait.

I had this happen to me just three nights ago and I finally gave up and waited until the next day, and then (miraculously) I could finally see the changes I had made.

You don't make css changes in functions.php. You can change the size of the image in the functions file, but front end display dimensions are changed in style.css. Your header is 1138px wide. The title area (logo space) is 300px and the widget area is 800px. Your logo image is 560px wide. You need to change the .title-area (line 1047) to:

.title-area {
    float: left;
    padding-left: 40px;
    width: 600px;
}

and .site-header .widget-area (line 1111) to:

.site-header .widget-area {
    float: right;
    padding-right: 40px;
    text-align: right;
    width: 500px;
}
