    I'm having the same problem with overriding a parent theme style here. See screen shot. I'm trying to override the #footer-outer #copyright li a i  style and change the color from #335466 to #ffffff and override the settings I have in Salient Options. I need the other copyright text to stay dark blue. I just want the social icon to be white and white on hover.

    Hey ,

    You need to add the !important attribute to override it.  

    Best.

    I tried that but it didn't work. However, I figured out a solution. 

    In the Salient Options panel, I had the Custom Footer Color Scheme enabled. I couldn't override the colors I picked because they were showing up as !important in the parent style sheet. The child theme style sheet with !important still wouldn't override it. 

    So... I turned off the Custom Footer Color Scheme. Then, defined my custom colors in the child them style sheet. This worked because the theme's default colors do not have the !important attribute.
