CSS applies in Customiser but not live

I have GP installed on this site but all my CSS changes appear only in Customiser and not on the live site. What is going on?
Which CSS changes? In the Additional CSS control?
I used the Simple Custom CSS plug-in. All the CSS there is what I’m referring to.
The client uses a GoDaddy hosting account and I’ve always had issues with GoDaddy and WordPress. Might be the issue but idk.
That's strange. What if you use the "Additional CSS" control? Same issue?
Looks like that worked! Thanks Tom! Is there another way to access the "Additional CSS" section without going in to Customiser each time?
That's strange, so Simple CSS isn't firing. Can you re-add it to Simple CSS so I can take a look at your code?
Additional CSS is only in the Customizer I believe.
Sure just did.
Also, I use the Simple Custom CSS plugin made by Regan and Van Cooten. CSS made with that plugin works totally fine on all other sites I use it on. The only difference between this site and the others I do is the host. I use 1&1 and the site I'm having issues with is on GoDaddy.
Weird, it's like it's stripping it out, or possibly not saving it. When you go back into the Customizer or the Simple CSS area, is the CSS there?
Yah the CSS is listed in both places - the Custom CSS plugin as well as the CSS in the Customiser. If I remove the CSS from the plugin, it doesn't affect anything and the CSS works properly. If I remove the CSS from the Customiser Additional CSS section, the CSS doesn't work.
Is the Simple Custom CSS plugin activated at the same time as Simple CSS? I believe there's a conflict between the two which can cause issues.
Only one plugin is active along with the Additional CSS inside Customiser. There has never been an issue. I really think it has to do with GoDaddy. I am currently building other sites on 1&1 hosting and have no issues. I've just deleted the Simple CSS plugin and I'll use the Additional CSS for this site. Its a very basic site too so I'm not worried about this one.
Sounds good, strange indeed. I'll keep it in mind if it happens again :)
It must be that particular plugin with that site. I just installed your Simple CSS plugin and ditched the Simple Custom CSS plugin and the changes worked perfectly. From now on, I'll just use your plugin. Thanks!
Good to know - thank you! :)
