Struggling with CSS Flexbox

Tell us what’s happening:

So I’m doing this challenge and I think I’m correct but it’s saying it’s wrong could someone tell me where I’m going wrong. ( Your .follow-btn should have a display property set to flex .) THis is what I got wrong.

Your code so far


<style>
body {
  font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
}
header {
display: flex; 
}
header .profile-thumbnail {
  width: 50px;
  height: 50px;
  border-radius: 4px;
}
header .profile-name {
display: flex; 
  margin-left: 10px;
}
header .follow-btn {
display: flex; 
  margin: 0 0 0 auto;
}
header .follow-btn button {
  border: 0;
  border-radius: 3px;
  padding: 5px;
}
header h3, header h4 {
display: flex; 
  margin: 0;
}
#inner p {
  margin-bottom: 10px;
  font-size: 20px;
}
#inner hr {

  border-style: solid;

Challenge: Add Flex Superpowers to the Tweet Embed

Link to the challenge:

I think your code is ok, I actually tried it in my own browser and challenge and your code passes the tests. I think it might be a bug, did you try refreshing the page and trying again?

Your code is correct!
I copy-pasted it and it worked. It might be something like @palmaone told.
A problem with your browser or any problems made by extensions.

Sometimes your browser extensions clash with FCC. Try disabling it. It worked for a user:

yep refresh the page and even signed in and out

Did you disable the extensions?

going to try that now give me one second

ok that worked. Is there a way to know which extension it was because i’ve been using the extensions and it was only that challenged where it messed up.

Try disabling the extensions one by one and you can find which extension is creating the problem.

Glad to hear that it worked :smiley:

I am sorry I don’t know how to find that
Yup @paulsonstech,
Try that one @rpatt

It was likely caused by an ad block extension. Some of the blocklists used by them block the button (by class).
