Override theme settings

Try adding more specific html selectors as well as adding !important

What I used is the same as above along with !important. However my !important isn’t overriding the theme’s !important. Too bad there isn’t a !more-important command to use.

You may try to use !important inline style which is more important than css style.
cheers

I will check it out. Thanks Nikeo

I do not understand how you would use the INLINE STYLE within the style sheet

I figured it out, Use html within the “Customize > Featured Pages > Featured Pages Selection > Featured Text” to change the color of the <p> text. It worked.

<P style="color: fuchsia">This is the text below the Featured page title

NOPE – It didn’t work, It showed right with the customize screen open but when I viewed it withing the browser (outside of dashboard) the text disappeared.

Why is there an !important command on the core Style Sheet anyway? It kills customizing.

Got it fixed and what I want. First cancel the color on the customize bar, then you can use css to edit your colors.
Just in case anyone is watching this thread and wants to do this.

I am new to CSS but have recently found out that using !important may not be such a good thing in the long run

It should be a last resort if you can’t find a more specific selector. This is an interesting thread from @questas!

Here is the end result of my labors. Just a site I am playing around with. Whats the verdict? does it look good?

SITE LINK

looks good man looks different

The only thing are the blue and red titles, looks like I need 3d glasses to read makes me a bit dizzy but that just may be me.

I changed the shadow settings a little, is this better?

I would Advise you to read up on The net on best/worst fonts for web design.

Unfortunately the brush script is amongst them ??

Yep, I know about that, That is why I only used that font on the FP Titles. However I have changed that font, it is easier to see/read I think. Thanks for the input. It’s the same font I am using on the menu now.

You know that but you still Did it? :p
I’m joking. It’s your site you can do whatever you like with it.
