Missing ; after "content"

In a few places

.progbar::before {
  content: ""     <--------------- ;
  display: block;
  width: 50%;
  height: 100%;
  border-radius: inherit;
    background-color: #5ece7f;
.progbar::after {
  content:""

And Spaces over here

.progbar a:: after{
    content: attr(href);

  height: 6px;
  border-radius: 3px;
  background: #d6d7d9;
  position: relative;
  margin-bottom: 3.875em; 
}
