Can I edit code in Workspace?

I am using the Workspace for the CSS section of the Digital Literacy track. Are we actually able to change code in here? I have made code changes, but when I preview, none of the changes are shown. I made the changes in the workspace, then clicked the little eye icon in the top right corner, and I only see the original format (I tried refreshing the webpage)

This has been the case for both of these workspaces:

Hi Becca,

A quick note: Workspaces are private to you and cannot be accessed by others when not active. If you need to share your Workspaces, you will need to take a snapshot and share that url.

Reading your post, you say you make changes and then click the eye... but you don't say anything about saving the changes? Are you saving before previewing (you'd be surprised how common this oversight is)?

If you are, you may have to clear the cache of the browser as it may be loading in a cached version of the page.

Those are the only things I can conclude would cause the changes not showing.

Hopefully this fixes it for you. :) :dizzy:

Saving it did the trick. Total beginner mistake! Thank you!
