style editor

I seem to have some trouble with the style editor in advanced mode. (Preview 4)

1) If I create a new style, it doesn't include my custom logo. If I switch back to default, the logo shows up as per configured in Manage Websites -> Edit -> Path to your website logo.

2) I created a new style. If I switch themes, the changes don't (always) change until I go to a new area of the site (news to articles for example). BUT *sometimes* it works on the fly.

I figured out what it is.. If you're at the website root, the theme selector DOESN'T take effect until you switch to a new page. If you're at a sub-section of the site (say articles), then switch themes, the change goes back to the web site root and updates the theme.

3) Using the style editor doesn't seem to parse the inputted values correctly. specifically, the bottom two blocks for quote block and code block. Whatever you type into the quote block is replicated into the code block. I *have* made manual changes to the css file, so maybe a change I made in there is causing the parse to be off.

Update: BIG PROBLEM, I switched from advanced to basic mode, made a change, saved, and it totally wiped out all my edits! Just lost a good hour of work! Slightly Frowning Face

Changed in build 327. I also modified the theme selector and added a warning before switching back to basic/advanced mode.

Good one. I change this in the next build.

I will look into it.

Sorry Slightly Frowning Face. I guess I should add a warning if someone try to switch to the basic/advanced mode from the CSS mode. The basic/advanced editor is not compatible with custom CSS style sheets and overwrite existing changes.
