Why is my template selection page in Wordpress showing cryptic CSS
If you find a broken template selection page, like the one shown here, on your WordPress blog
- don’t be worried. Last day while I was editing this blogs template I came across such a page. It didn’t take me long to figure out what was wrong. But until I found the reason I actually was a little worried. May be because I am new to WordPress.
So what does the above page mean. for this just look at the code shown. It is just the CSS from your current theme. So the error is caused by the style.css file in your theme directory. The CSS file must have a normal formatted structure as shown.
If the formatting and the new line characters are missing in the file after an edit the WordPress template page may look like the above.
What you can do is always edit the CSS file with ditors like NotePad++ or Microsoft FrontPage. It is better not to use NotPa. If you are on Linux you can use GEdit a wonderful inbuilt editor with highlighting and support for many languages and Scripts.
