I have been trying to edit the Common.css file on my wiki, I have the right permissions and my edits are seemingly being saved to that page on my Wiki. However, the changes seemingly do nothing even after hard reloading my browser.

I can't seem to find the common.css file in the "View Page Source" either, which makes me think I missed something during setup?

If anyone had tips, or tutorials they could link, it would be much appreatiated! : ) My wiki is located at https://eclipsegame.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page

I think you need to target a different element to change the page background

Ahh, glad to see the CSS is working on your end! The body pink was just to test as I could not see the other CSS I was working on doing anything. I have re-freshed the browser multiple times and still nothing, even restarting. Thanks for checking though! I will keep trying things : )

No problem, caching can be weird sometimes

#

If you want to check whether your CSS code is present and you're using firefox, you can also open the dev tools and go to the style editor. one of the stylesheets called "load.php" contains the code of common.css

Ahh was able to get the test code to work once switching over to Firefox, I think my issue was a combination of something going wrong with caching but also my CSS for the wikitables just not working correctly lol. Thank you for the help!

Just for future reference I highly recommend opening a new incognito window -- They always start with a fresh cache & is usually the quickest way for me to see my CSS actually present
