Modified stylesheet being over-written

  • I’ve made some modifications to the stylesheet for this plugin, and (as expected) they’re getting over-written every time it’s updated.

    I’ve tried copying the modified code into the main stylesheet for the theme, but the version of the code that’s in the plugin stylesheet is what’s being displayed.

    I know some plugins have a checkbox in the settings to tell it which to use, is there something like that here that I’m just not seeing?

    Hey, cyberinfinity!

    One way to override the plugin styles in your theme styles is to use a more specific CSS rule than the plugin uses.

    If you’re trying to override the plugin’s .slide-excerpt selector, for example, you might write .flexslider .slide-excerpt in your theme’s stylesheet. The properties you define in that rule set will then trump the ones in the plugin stylesheet.

    There’s no setting to tell the plugin to use a custom stylesheet, so overriding styles in this way with specificity is one of the best options available.

    Thanks, that worked!
