      After struggling, this is what i managed to take a screenshot of. It does not show the styles of the selected content in the dev screen.

        It means your CSS(probably custom.css) is not applied.

        The reasons might be;

        • Fail to load custom.css (invalid file name or location)
        • Syntax error in your custom.css

        I can see the red circled X mark in your console. You can check it in Console tab(right of Elements tab) or click that mark directly.

          To make things simple;

          1. All other modules except newsfeed, remove or disable them. (It seems you have more than 28 modules currently)
          {
            disabled: true, // <-- toggle the module disabled/enabled
            module: "weather",
            position: "top_right",
            ...
          
          1. Return to custom.css to the original, or remove all its contents.

          2. Now, I’ll assume you have a clean CSS.

          3. Then just add this into your custom.css and save it.

          .newsfeed .newsfeed-title {
            font-size: 60px;
          }
          
          .newsfeed .newsfeed-source {
            font-size: 40px;
          }
          
          1. Let’s see what happens when MM runs.

            @Rags using your image, marked up for color

            forum2.png

            the styles tree pane (right side, orange) shows info for only ONE element at a time

            look at the bottom row of the element tree pane(left side, blue), right edge, says u have the module-content element selected (purple), not the newsfeed-title element(green)

            because the module replaces it’s content every updateInterval cycle, the developers window will reselect the first element not replaced if your selected element disappears

            that’s why I said set the interval to 60 seconds to give u time to look and change

              @MMRIZE Finally ! Finally…
              I disabled all modules, except newsfeed, then cleared out the custom.css configs and added a fresh config for newsfeed as suggested above and finally it worked.
              So was the issue just because of the corrupt custom.css?
              Anyways, this issue has enabled me to learn working with the developer console. I am glad.
              Thank you @MMRIZE and thank you @sdetweil . Ever obliged.

                @Rags glad u got it working

                one thing to note, if there is a syntax error in the custom.css, everything ABOVE the error will work, everything AFTER will not
