    Absolutely love this plugin. Props to the author, John! If you’re reading this, I have a request.

    I do lots of custom CSS to sites. Sometimes over 500+ lines. Creates a long scrollbar. After making change, I have to scroll all the way down (or up) to save. After saving, I want to make another change in the same section, but I have to scroll through and find it. Sometimes these pauses can be a hassle when I’m in “the zone” while styling (You know how it is, right?)

    MY REQUEST:

    Have the save button on the right follow the user’s position and add some magic to save the page without losing my scroll position. That would take this plugin to the next level!

    Thanks for your contribution to the community 🙂

    One more idea. This one is more for vanity sake, but I’ve never seen this functionality and it would also save time.

    Have a sort of shortcode in CustomCSS editor to create a new “section”. The sections appear at the top, are clickable, and will take you to that portion of the CSS editor.

    So for example you’d use it as such:

    &Header&

(css)

&&Logo&&

(more css)

&&Contact Info&&

(more css)

&Navigation Menu&

(more css)

&&Sub-Menues&&

    And at the top there’s an anchor that scrolls to that section. From the example above it would appear as this at the top:

    1. Header
1a. Logo
1b. Contact Info
2. Navigation Menu
2a. Sub-Menues

    Just playing devils’ advocate here but isn’t a child theme a better route if you have 500+ lines of code, especially if some code is common to several sites?

    Hello Chris. We do use child themes. However because we’re trying to accurately represent the branding of the client’s business, these major CSS modifications are many times necessary to add a personal touch. Styles are not usually shared between multiple projects, but in the cases they are we typically create our own wordpress theme in those cases.

    No wordpress theme is perfect, and I really like how using Simple Custom CSS on all our projects maintains a consistent location for those added styles.
