3,708 Pointsgrid.css Not Working with Theme
I'm following Zac Gordon's WordPress Theme track with the website I created using the "How To Build A Website" track. I'm not sure if I've missed something basic, but my grid columns aren't displaying on my site. It works and looks fine when I look at my original html/css locally, but converting it to a WordPress theme is where I have an issue.
This is what it currently looks like, and here are links to the source code and grid.css file.
As you can see, the text is spanning the entire width rather than 90% of it, which is what I am aiming for.

9,767 PointsI personally sacked grids off very soon after learning about them. They're an unnecessary file in my opinion.
Take your nav section which you've wrapped in a grid_12 omega div.
Is it not easier and better to just give the nav element a class of nav-container and write in CSS width:100%; margin:0; ???
As for why it's not working, your issue is a missing forward slash here, between wpwuog and css:
wp-content/themes/wpwuogcss/grid.css?ver=3.7.1'
<link rel='stylesheet' id='grid-css' href='http://localhost/wuog.org/wp-content/themes/wpwuogcss/grid.css?ver=3.7.1' type='text/css' media='all' />
