Custom CSS does not load via Cellular Data

    I am using the Confit theme with my own custom css added in order to over ride certain styles.

    This works fine when I view the site on my MacBook or iPhone over wifi however when I try to load the site using cellular data the custom css is not applied?

    I cannot figure out why this would be so if anyone has any ideas I would be more than happy to hear them.

    Thanks

    That sounds like a network issue. Sometimes, a provider will have blocked (or cannot load for some reason) the CSS file served by a web server. Sometimes issues like that are regional, but if that happens there are usually a number of other posts.

    The best thing to do first is try testing a bit more. Clear the phone’s browser cache if you can and try loading again. You can also try to get a friend with 3G in another location to view the site to see if they have the same problem.

    I did try looking at soupandcowp.wordpress.com just now on my iPhone using 3G and the site worked normally for me. I noticed you are using the mobile theme for that site. If you want to learn more about mobile themes, go to http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/mobile-themes/

    Thank you for the response.

    I have actually been back and forth with your support team on this. I discovered that it is indeed my carrier causing the problem:

    But I appreciate your taking the time to respond all the same. One quick note however is that soupandcowpwordpress.com is an other blog I am launching later in this year. The blog in question is http://thoughtsondesign.co.uk/ .

    Thanks again,

    Derek ^_^

    It’s really helpful to have that link here in case others run into the same problem. I appreciate that you followed up to post it!

    The blog linked at the bottom of forum help requests is one of the form options given when you create a new topic. Just select the one you’re referring to in that form if you need top post in the forums about something again in the future.

    http://thoughtsondesign.co.uk/ is a gorgeous minimal use of Confit!

    That link about O2’s network is thoughtful and interesting.
