Im just starting to adjust the demo content to the styles I want. I'm using the child theme style css for these adjustments. But at every adjustment I have to use the !important tag to overrule the default style. Like I want to change the width and height of the countdown circles:
Without the important tag nothing happens. Normally this important tag is not necessary, only in some occasions but not all. The child theme is normally the first and most important css if you select this as theme. So what is going wrong?
by the way. I had a problem with the plugins to install. They didnt got installed and i got the message \"no valid header found\". I\'ve contacted my webhost because I thought this problem was theirs.
My website was hosted under the same domain name as the old one. The old one was live and the new one wasn\'t. I used the mac program \"hosts\" to work on my website.
The reason the plugins didnt get installed: My webhost told me that the plugins get installed by domain directory and not by server directory. If your website isnt live (like mine was), you cannot install the plugins. They put my website live under a temporary url. This solved the problem. They told me to inform you about this problem, and maybe it was better to change this install process to server directory. Sorry for my bad english. But I hope you understand what im trying to explain :)
I had the same child theme style problem. I updated the theme (currently version 1.30) together with the child theme. I removed all !important in my css rules but it didn\'t work, so I tried to put these rules in the style_end.css file instead of the main style.css and it worked!
My question: should I always put my styles in this style_end.css file? Can you please explain what is it for?
Thanks and great job! Your theme is really amazing!
In fact the style and style_end.css should be loaded in the style.css file of your child theme. If you put custom css after the import rule it should work ( if you are using the version 1.3 of the theme )
Do not hesitate to contact us if you have other questions.
Hi! As I wrote in my previous message, I currently have version 1.30 installed and I updated the child theme also, in which there is also the \"empty and ready to customize\" style_end.css file (the previous child theme version didn\'t have it).
So now, both CSS in child theme\'s folder (style.css and style_end.css) are loading the related main theme\'s files, in this way
Then if you put your custom css in style.css that should works fine too, it doesn\'t really matter if it is in style_end.css or style.css.
We made both file load from the child theme because the style_end.css was still loaded from the main theme and was overwriting custom css used in the child theme style.css
Do not hesitate to contact us if you have other questions.
Hello,
Im just starting to adjust the demo content to the styles I want. I'm using the child theme style css for these adjustments. But at every adjustment I have to use the !important tag to overrule the default style. Like I want to change the width and height of the countdown circles:
.count_bigicon_circle{
width:140px !important;
height:140px !important;
}
Without the important tag nothing happens. Normally this important tag is not necessary, only in some occasions but not all. The child theme is normally the first and most important css if you select this as theme. So what is going wrong?
Hello Hanneke,
Please go edit the functions.php of the main theme and change the line 92
wp_enqueue_style(\'style_end\', RD_DIRECTORY. \'/style_end.css\');
to
wp_enqueue_style(\'style_end\', RD_STYLEPATH. \'/style_end.css\');
This is a bug that will be fixed in the next update.

How to Update your Theme
Hi Everybody!
I had the same child theme style problem.
I updated the theme (currently version 1.30) together with the child theme. I removed all !important in my css rules but it didn\'t work, so I tried to put these rules in the style_end.css file instead of the main style.css and it worked!
My question: should I always put my styles in this style_end.css file?
Can you please explain what is it for?
Thanks and great job! Your theme is really amazing!
Hello Andrea,
Which theme version are you using?
In fact the style and style_end.css should be loaded in the style.css file of your child theme.
If you put custom css after the import rule it should work ( if you are using the version 1.3 of the theme )
Do not hesitate to contact us if you have other questions.

Hi!
As I wrote in my previous message, I currently have version 1.30 installed and I updated the child theme also, in which there is also the \"empty and ready to customize\" style_end.css file (the previous child theme version didn\'t have it).
So now, both CSS in child theme\'s folder (style.css and style_end.css) are loading the related main theme\'s files, in this way
@import url(\"../TheFox/style.css\");
@import url(\"../TheFox/style_end.css\");
Is that correct?
And so my question is: in what file should I always put my custom rules??
Thanks a lot!
Hello,
Then if you put your custom css in style.css that should works fine too, it doesn\'t really matter if it is in style_end.css or style.css.
