Object won't go hidden

Hey so, in the image you'll see that the trashcan should have the hidden class, yet the trashcan is not hidden.. The trashcan object is: <i class="fa-solid fa-trash-can articleDeleteTrash" style="color:white; cursor:pointer;"></i> the css of hidden is:

.hidden{
display:none;
visibility: none;
}

.hidden{
display:none;
visibility: none;
}
Okay, while writing this update... So sometimes on the live after refreshing it it is working, yet other times it is not... I'd prefer no inconsistenties All that I did inbetween it not working and it working was make sure the css file is linked by simply putting the body:background-color:red to confirm it indeed being linked After confirming it was linked I wanted to add that to this message and then somehow it started working as it should Any idea if this inconsistency is just due to Live servers Or some other reason? Because if this inconsistency is bc of live servers sometimes loading weirdly, then it shouldn't be a problem when I push it to the internet But if it is something else then I'd like to figure out why and prevent it from happening

One refresh later and it refuses to work again, 10/10 😂😭 save me This is how it should be when it has the hidden object... I don't get it, once more I just added body color red and then live servers does it again... Like, am I to assume this is a bug in live servers or not ? andafter removing the bodycolor it still works, until I manually hit refresh page Loading the page fresh (as in closing the port and reopening it, has the issue in it) Adding a random style to the css file fixes it The previously mentioned addition does not keep it fixed after a refresh Is it somehow thinking my css file isn't linked until I manually change it? But if that is the case, considering it is live servers, it should basically refresh page whenever I change something right? Then why is it acting strange with a manual refresh Yeh!! It is literally fixing itself the moment I touch the css in vsc, what ? I'll push it to live and see what it does Okay update, on the internet, the issue persists and changing the css file while in browser does NOT fix it I mean, the background color got adjusted to yikes flashy red but it ain't removing the trashcan, any clue as to whats going on here?

Okay, I'm completely lost Literally touching the css files once even if its incorrect, even if its a different css file fixes the issue But obv when its pushed live to the internet that can't be done right ill post a link to the site, but I don't understand where the issue could be https://brights-store-app-prototype.netlify.app

font awesome styling is winning with your css file beacuse of load order
Brightie
Brightie•11mo ago
ahh alright even tho I apply the styling later on? Like the styling legit gets applied on clicking on it manually, yet fontawesome still winning?
Mannix
Mannix•11mo ago
but the file is loaded before fontawesome it doesnt matter at what point you add the class

ahh, alright thanks! lesson learnt Always load third party styles and scripts before loading my own to ensure correct behaviour

but then, why did it fix itself whenever I manipulated the css files while live server is open? Is it bc live server only reloads the thigns I made changes in?
