Doing a test site I have gotten blocks to upload to my local WordPress and I can place them on a page but when I do that it has no styling it’s lost all the styling from the original page and in the folder that it’s put everything into in my WordPress local there’s no CSS file How do I get it to export out the CSS file into my WordPress folder so then it could be uploaded or used for the right formatting of the blocks? I was able to use the AI to create the editable blocks on a small segment That worked, but even with that it still had no styling when I put the blocks in to the WordPress page. This test site was made with bootstrap ---

Here you can see the CSS is in this bootstrap folder. ![Screenshot 2026-04-30 at 1.44.28 PM](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/pinegrow/original/2X/e/e7ead9129d7d6085b2e985caba2b6a6657301695.png) ![Screenshot 2026-04-30 at 1.49.24 PM](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/pinegrow/original/2X/9/9e21863dc7b38fdc9cef6b90a850df165cf4077e.png) ---

So I tried this with the Tailwind project and I’m having the same problem. It uploads to WordPress in a block from the plugins, but none of the layout is there. I really need to get this fixed and working I am stuck and can’t get past this to be able to start working on my page blocks. I always get these footer errors no matter what I try to export out as a block. ![Screenshot 2026-04-30 at 4.06.41 PM](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/pinegrow/original/2X/2/2072ea4ae2652f98db9bab1305f2620682bae3d5.jpeg) .. Everything’s just running down the page. Here’s a screenshot showing the original Tailwind template. And then what it looks like after it’s being uploaded to WordPress. Nothing’s formatted. ![Screenshot 2026-04-30 at 3.59.11 PM](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/pinegrow/original/2X/9/9bcf39dfc1e2ecdcf4142df8b79dc10e0a98a980.jpeg) ![Screenshot 2026-04-30 at 3.58.48 PM](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/pinegrow/original/2X/1/1135943a70cba1497ab71992af556ceb8721efac.jpeg) ![Screenshot 2026-04-30 at 4.08.31 PM](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/pinegrow/original/2X/7/7141a47241207483253ed00dd2fef17ba785f6db.jpeg) ---

Looks like you are giving every block the same ID? They need their own unique ID ---

I thought I watched a video that said you could highlight a bunch of them at once and give it one ID so it creates one large block to drop in. Maybe I thought I saw that. I will retry it again. I’ve just watched a whole series of long videos on doing this. I’m not sure why I’m not getting that one CSS area to fill in. I’m going to try with one of the bootstrap templates like they’re doing in one of the videos. ---

The idea of a “unique” ID is its used once only.
