SLowly going mad here! I am trying to put a small custom border at the bottom of a paragraph. The Border properties in the Design panel won’t work . ie I successfully create a class and style it but WILL NOT save over to styles.css (I have had this sort of problem many times - ie classes created in properties panel will only very erratically save over to style.css. So I went into html and got the tag and tried to style it inside DOM. It created a style in my code, but the hr disappeared entirely from the page in design. HELP Please!!
I have managed ( suddenly - I don’t know how or why) to get a styled border class over into styles.css from styles panel. But it won’t apply to the page at all.
My problem and the one you describe could very well be related - not sure.
But the problem is erratic and always seems to relate to new styles. Mostly it doesn't work for me. I end up having to go to style.css and enter the class manually. I thought it may have been because I was trying to place a border class on a paragraph and border was built more for columns and rows. I was working in design view. Do you think it's a bug? I will try doing a save of style.css after the class is made and see if that changes anything.
Saving css regularly not changing anything. Now I find that I can’t enter style.css and enter the class manually. I get told my syntax is unknown. But it’s not! What’s going on?
I have rebooted Wappler (many times) Rebooted machine.
Four hours later I have discovered that if I do NOT name the class in properties panel but let Wappler name it eg style1 style2 etc, then it DOES land in style.css and works oln the page in Design view. I can then change the class name in style.css and inside the page code and all seems OK - I also found that if I created the class name myself I seemed to lose the line function….
Try adding the class inline first to adjust it how you want it that way you see it in real-time if the styles are cached. Then when you have it how you want it add it to your styles file.
<h1 style="border: 1px solid black; padding: 5px;">Some example text with a border</h1>
That at least lets you see what it should look like...
Thankyou Cheese. The inline style looks like I expected - a thin line around the paragraph, with padding in place. But where I’m wanting the border to be styled ( as a new class) is in the properties panel ( Design/border) ! I want it to end up in the style.css. I’m not a coder by nature!! I want to know why that transfer from new class with styled border to .style.css is not working!! Thanks
