Strange slideout menu style issues

I am having an issue where I have a slide out menu, in this menu I have a a block element with a number of GenerateBlocks buttons.
What is happening is some are loosing their styling... but only on the home page?
Ill include links to the various parts below in the private info box.

I have no cache plugins and have manually disabled the server cache (WPX Hosting).
Its a weird issue... help :) please.
Thanks
Hi there,
go to Dashboard > GenerateBlocks > Settings and click to Regenerate CSS button to see if that cures the issue. Make sure browser caches are cleared before rechecking.
Cheers David, that seems to have resolved it ... didn't know that button existed :)
Thanks!

Glad to be of help
Actually, it's still happening... Its only the home page and it's losing the style of the slide out menu items ( not all buttons).
Weirdly either with logged in users or logged out users (who get different menu items) - never both. One or the other only.
If I refresh the CSS the other one that was working stops and the other starts?
Maybe it's too late and I'm going mad... 😁
Forgot to change the status back to not resolved.
Can you resupply the URL and admin login ( our system auto deletes them when a topic gets resolved ) - we can then take another look at whats going on.
added new pass below (first didn't save)
just in-case the other bits didn't save
Hi there,
That doesn't seem to be logging me in - it just refreshes the login page.
Are any of these styles/blocks different for logged in/out users? I've seen this where a block is set for logged-out users, and a logged-in user visits the page, causing the CSS to build for that specific user, which means the CSS for the logged-out element is missing.
What happens if you change your CSS Print Method to "Inline Embedding" in "GenerateBlocks > Settings"?
What happens if you change your CSS Print Method to “Inline Embedding” in “GenerateBlocks > Settings”?
That appears to have fixed the issue (it was external), Ill look in to the first part of your reply as I suspect there is something in that, logged in and logged out users do share some of the same menu items... so could be getting confused... however the inline method is currently working :)
-- added the login url in private
cheers
If there are different styles for logged-in vs logged-out users, then that makes sense why it's happening.
As for the solution, we haven't figured it out yet. The plugin will generate a CSS file when a change is made, but the CSS generated depends on what's appearing on the page at the time, and that can differ depending on logged-in/out users in some cases if it's set up that way.
In this case, the Inline Embedding is the way to go, at least for now.
