Joomla 3.2 working with css files

Question

I am testing Joomla 3.2 and trying to customize css files off custom and default templates but I can't get any changes to actualy display online.

First of all I thought it was a cache problem although it usualy is disabled on installation. I enabled and disabled it, cleared cache several times...

Tried several browsers clearing and disabling cache each time but still, my changes don't apear...

The wierdest thing is that I don't have that problem on joomla 3.1 and changes I make to index.php files apear. If you have had that problem or have an idea where it comes from I would be greatfull for help.

Answer 1

Ok, I found out what the pb was...

My hosting service (a french company : OVH) is caching static files and I have to ask them to stop it while I am working on the css. Sorry for bothering, it is not a joomla problem.

Answer 2

Check the default template of your site and then go to:

root_of_your_site/templates/default_template_named_folder/index.php

and try to edit here, this will work.

Answer 3

I had this problem too. spent hours trying to work it out. i solved it in the end.am sure someone else may do the same. i had checked JOOMLA cache was off, and my cache was cleared.

In my situation i had forgotten i have set to domain up to use a CDN (cloudflare) This was caching the CSS files. so maybe check this and tick it off the list just in case.

hope it helps someone
