CSS changes not saved?

    I wanted to add stroke to my text to make it more legible with the following code:

    p {-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0.2px;
    -webkit-text-stroke-color: black;
    }

    It works in the customizer and I can see the stroke around the text. However, the code and the changes dissappear as soon as I close the customizer even though it states “Saved” at the top.

    On a side-note: I tried to use the Livechat but was unable to find the option. It only gave me the option to email..

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi there,

    -webkit-text-stroke is non-standard CSS. That means it is not supported across all browsers, and its current implementation is still in flux, i.e. even in browsers that do support it, the way different browsers support it vary, and even its implementation within any specific browser is likely to change.

    The Mozilla Developer Network doesn’t currently recommend using this WebKit extension at all in production (live) websites, and we also don’t currently support it on WordPress.com and it gets stripped out automatically if you try to add it.

    Once it becomes a standard feature with better browser support we’ll likely add support for it on our end, but for now you won’t be able to use that CSS.

    On a side-note: I tried to use the Livechat but was unable to find the option. It only gave me the option to email..

    Over weekends livechat is only available to Business Plan customers, and during the week you might also be routed to email instead if we don’t have any live chat operators available at the moment you’re trying to start a chat. We don’t use a queue system for live chat support – if we can’t connect you to someone immediately, our system lets you submit an email support ticket instead, which is usually better for CSS-related questions anyway.

    Hi, thanks for the reply!
    I will try to find a code that works :)

    Was just wondering about the livechat as it was Friday morning but maybe it was due to time difference, no problem though! thanks for clarifying.
