chrisdac Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Hi, We're shortly going live with a new store for one of our clients, built using Prestashop 1.5.4. Annoyingly, changes we have recently made to global.css are not showing - the site is still serving the old css. I have already tried: - Forcing compilation - Disabling the site cache - Disabling all CCC - Deleting all files from /cache/smarty/cache and /cache/smarty/compile - Deleting my local browser cache and doing a hard refresh Nothing is working; we are still not seeing the new styles. Any idea what is happening here? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romedius33 Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Hi chrisdac, could you also share the head of your ugly user errors! I'm having the same problem. Tried everything with caching and so, but all changes in global.css still not taking place. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romedius33 Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 (edited) Hi vekia, thanks for the fast reply. I want to change at least some smaller things: Google Fonts line-heights ... but also some bugs like the logo height (which is too big and overlaps the pictures below). All my changes in header.tpl also do not take place. I tried everything with clearing the cache: browser cache deleting all files in cache/smarty/compile and cache/smarty/cache my smarty in the preferences is set on compile force and cache deactivated I really don't know what to do anymore. I have the latest version of Prestashop (1.5.4.1) and am using the default theme. I am using the right files too (I am used to work with FTP programs like FileZilla). But all the changes are not taking place. thanks for your help in advance, k Edited June 4, 2013 by romedius33 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romedius33 Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Found the answer: I needed a 'hard' browser refresh with Strg+F5 then it finally worked. Does anyone know why a 'normal' refresh is not working??? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vekia Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 it's because your browser has got own "cache" (websites works better - much better load time - with browser cache). You can turn cache in your browser off, but in my opinion it is bad idea, it's better to hard refresh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drasl Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 hello, when i make changes in the global.css it works fine, but when i make changes inside the @media max width (for mobile) it does not work at all. I try to edit the footer in prestashop 1.6.1.1 default theme. is there some other file i have to edit? thank you Solution1: Use !important Solution2: just look for css file in your OS. You can search for ".footer-container" string. Solution3: just disable smarty cache and search the css file with firebug for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mihaela Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 (edited) Hi. I am having the same problem. Global.css changes are not working. I am trying to change just a color. Tried everything: - browser hard reset - from backoffice disabling all cache, clear cache The file itself gets changed, but when I inspect the page source and check the global.css, the color is the old one. This is my shop: www.babylovebox.ro And I want to change the color of the phone number and email in the footer (which are white on white background).
