Description

I can select a theme stylesheet, apply it to the site, view the stylesheet , and edit the stylesheet. Checking the stylesheet update time, I can see the the edit took place, and I can find the updated CSS in the file. But, the site continues to use an unedited version of the stylesheet, it seems. A DOM inspector shows that my edit didn't take place (I changed the body font-size property from 14px to 16px). There's no visual evidense of this change in the page appearance.

What's worse, I can no longer change the site's theme. Using the Look & Feel selector, I can select another site theme, but the switch-theme module, which overrides the site default, can't be used (the selector dropdown is disabled in the HTML). So the theme that I edited (although in its pre-edit state) is stuck as the theme in use.

This feature should be fixed, or else killed, and people directed to use Custom Less or Custom CSS instead, IMO.

Solution
Apparently edit CSS works normally and my experience of was due to caching or sessions issues locally, so I'm closing the bug report.
