    Full disclosure: I’m no HTML or CSS developer. I expected however to be able to build a static website on a theme with Publii.

    I’m using the Simple theme until I get my site and server working just right. Right now, the Preview in Publii looks like the published theme. When I sync it to my website, it loses all the formatting. Any ideas why? Thanks in advance.

    Arthur.

    Thanks Bob. I’ve tried the suggested changes without success. I’ve switched between http and https in the  Website URL on Publii. I’m still missing a more faithful representation of the website. Any ideas? Thanks.

    Apologies but the issue is now resolved. There might’ve been some delay between my publishing the site and the changes being visible – I don’t understand how that might be. The prefix matches what is on my URL, caches have been cleared. Thanks again.
