What’s making me unsure if I should continue are 2 things: 1 — when you press Save, it shoots you back to the top of the CSS file. If you wanted to check and re-edit a bit you were working on, you’ve got to find it again. 2 — no code hints to help complete as you type. Both these things are present on the Additional CSS panel but not here. Hope they can introduce! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/1db21927f52888eab0586b915ed203da3b958baa05c87ff086254b46695eee44? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Excellent plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/excellent-plugin-8819/)󠁿 [ws24](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ws24/) 23 Սեպտեմբերի, 2023 By far the best plugin to add custom css, I have been using it for years now and in many websites. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/d0428f8a39b215d18ded63fe71eab5f535e88c70b73878f806e93212028ff8b3? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Awesome plugin to give non admins CSS access](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/awesome-plugin-to-give-non-admins-css-access/)󠁿 [thessnake03](https://profiles.wordpress.org/thessnake03/) 11 Ապրիլի, 2023 great solution to give certain users CSS access without giving them too much access ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/a4c643f987f52f70ec951e299504cfabf1594ca4f6ef7b065c3845ed010c886e? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Please update](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/please-update-128/)󠁿 [itsmeagh](https://profiles.wordpress.org/itsmeagh/) 18 Հունվարի, 2023 Please update is amazing plugin. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/1040405671e4f11d87b220c28fadad719ad0d1b11dccc85976e5aa073e50f326? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Brilliant — shaved 75% off my page load time](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/brilliant-shaved-1-1-second-off-my-page-load/)󠁿 [Keirwatson](https://profiles.wordpress.org/keirwatson/) 9 Փետրվարի, 2021 I had been struggling with page speed but could see in GT Metrix that custom CSS( Jetpack) was taking over 1 second to load. Copied it over to Simple CSS and page load dropped from 3.3 seconds to 0.8s! That’s a 75% reduction — fantastic!!! [Also, I love that I can drop a little bit of CSS into the meta box for some post-specific tweaks — so cool, saves CSS bloat for rarely used styling] [ Read all 60 reviews ](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/simple-css/reviews/) ## Contributors & Developers “Simple CSS” is open source software.
