Custom CSS not being read for nectar slider
Closed

    Hi There,

    I wrote a bunch of css for the nectar slider and it works when I add to style.css using inspect element feature. However, when I actually add the css and refresh the page, it doesn't effect the page. I see the CSS is in the stylesheet (so its not a cache issue), but its not changing anything. Here is a sample of the custom CSS I added for the first slide (I named each slide slide-12, slide-22, slide-33):

    .slide-12 h2 {
    font-family: Helvetica!Important;
    color: #636363!important;
    position: relative!important;
    left: 16%!important;
    top: -30px!important;
    width: 40%!Important;
    font-size: 20px!Important;
    }

    .slide-12 p {
    font-family: Helvetica !Important;
    color: #d3d3d3!important;
    width: 20%!Important;
    position: relative!important;
    left: 16%!important;
    top: -30px!important;
    }

    .slide-12 img {
    position: relative!important;
    top: 15px!important;
    left: -4%!important;
    }

    Ok, got it working by putting the CSS in @media screen tags with specific screen sizes… not sure why that made it work, but it did. If you know why that would make a difference, please let me know. Otherwise you can just close this ticket :)

    Thanks!

    Hey!

    One reason for it not working could be low css selector specificity. Here is an article explaining it in detail: www.smashingmagazine.com/2007/07/27/css-specificity-things-you-should-know/ .

    Thanks
