custom css not working

    I’m trying to customize my template which is Minimatica.

    I just want to make little changes(like colour, font etc) to different areas which I’m quite comfortable with.

    The problem I’m having:
    I’ve added a custom.css sheet but it does not overide the style.css sheet. Do I need to add something to the original style sheet?

    Another Question: What is the Visual Editor Stylesheet for?
    I’ve not seen this before. The Last website I built was using wordpress 3.0 sometime in May and I haven’t seen this sheet before.
    Should I be editing this instead?

    Thanks,

    Tajo

  • Do I need to add something to the original style sheet?

    Yes. I’d suggest getting rid of your custom.css sheet and actually editing the theme’s main stylesheet.

    What is the Visual Editor Stylesheet for?

    It’s CSS that is intended to replicate the final published page within the Visual Editor as closely as possible. It’s a fairly new(ish) addition that is now being more heavily promoted amongst theme developers. It attempts to reduce the problems for non-technical users who previously had difficulty envisaging what their final page would look like when creating content in the Visual Editor.

    If you use the HTML tab, don’t have a problem creating/editing content or haven’t made changes that drastically change the theme’s output, I wouldn’t bother editing this file.

    Thanks again esmi

    @esmi- im having the same problem as this user, but i was told by a woo support tech to be sure to do any edits to the code in the custom section in case the theme ever gets updated by my client and they loose all of my customizations. Have you ever had this happen and if not do you think thats a good enough reason to use the custom css? I would hate for her to accidentally update the theme and loose it all…

    Please post a new topic.
