Hi there,

We have many Views across our sites and all use CSS to style. Never had any issues before however...

We've created a new page: hidden link

This has a view where we have custom CSS in the Loop, just like all other Views.

The issue is, no matter what I do to edit the CSS is has no effect on the output.
I'm trying to change padding around the text area and the title size of each item....nothing updates.

Yet I can style the reset button in the side filter. I must have spent 2 hours looking into why, soooo frustrating.

Only difference with this page the the rest of the site is its a Gutenberg Page.

Any thoughts would be great 🙂

Hello and thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Can you elaborate more on this issue, what are these styles that are lost? Would you allow me temporary access to check the page, the view, its content template, and the custom CSS? I may found the cause or at least a workaround.

Even though the content template "Loop item in Fabulous Norfolk Page" appears on the templates for this view on "Fabulous Norfolk Page" the loop uses another content template "loop-item-in-location-wells-nex-the-sea". Check this screenshot hidden link

Content template "Loop item in Location Wells-nex-the-Sea" custom CSS is being used, check this screenshot hidden link

I hope this helps. Let me know if this still needs any assistance.
