  Hi,
  When I edit my WordPress site I changed the background to a pale yellow color and the font to a darker green. When I look at it on the editor, it looks fine, but whenever I preview or visit the site my background is white again and the text is black. I’ve updated everything, even though my site is private, and saved it multiple times. I tried clearing my cache as well. How do I fix this?

  Hi Rachel,

  I see exactly the same in the preview and when I check your site:

  

  Were you able to fix that or do you still see different colors on your end?

  Hi,
  Thank you for replying!
  I still see the beige color at the bottom when editing (where it says latest posts) with a green font, but when I preview or go to the actual URL it comes up as white with black text.

  Hi,
  I was able to get it to work! I re-updated all the colors by copying and posting the hex # and it now looks how I wanted it to. I’m not sure why it didn’t work before, maybe it was my WiFi at home.

  Thank you for the help!

  Hi Rachel,

  Can you try clearing your browser cache for me?

  I see the same as staff-mckluskey, i.e. your custom colors, so if you still see it as black text on white, it could be that your browser is loading an older version of the page. Clearing the cache should fix that:

  Ah, now I see your most recent comment.

  It sounds like it was indeed a caching issue, yes. Glad you got it figured out :)
