I have the plugin mailchimp for wordpress installed on the home page of my website. Site is using salient with ascend. I am having trouble overriding styles from the parent CSS. Can you tell me how i can over ride Salient CSS?

Specific CSS trying to over ride.

.container-wrap input[type="text"],.container-wrap textarea, .container-wrap input[type="email"],.container-wrap input[type="password"], .container-wrap input[type="tel"], .container-wrap input[type="url"], .container-wrap input[type="search"], .container-wrap input[type="date"] {

background-color: transparent!important;

want the background color to be white and used this CSS on my child stylesheet to no avail.

.mc4wp-form input[type="email"]{

background-color: #fff !important;

}

.container-wrap input[type="email"]{

background-color: #fff !important;

}

&

.ascend .container-wrap input[type="submit"], .ascend .container-wrap button[type="submit"] {

padding: 16px!important;

border-radius: 0!important;

}

used this CSS

.ascend .container-wrap input[type="submit"], .ascend .container-wrap button[type="submit"] {

padding: 10px 10px !important;

border-radius: 5!important;

}

.mc4wp-form button, .mc4wp-form input[type=submit]{

border-radius: 5px !important;

padding 10px;

}

.mc4wp-form input[type="submit"] {

border-radius: 5px;

padding 10px;

}
