Okay, so I have done the following.
I made changes in the back end, through the "customize" feature in the backend of the local site.
Changes made show up in the backend preview, but do not get committed to the local front end site.
At first I thought it was a bug in the theme I used, so I tried other themes and they displayed the same behaviour.
So what I did next, I uploaded
