I'm using Avada template and create child theme. In style.css I don't have any solution to overwrite default .css styles from Avada. Only possible solution is using !important , anyone know how to overwrite Avada .css without using !important
Please use custom css option. You can write css here it would overwrite the Avada css. Please check out the documentation https://theme-fusion.com/knowledgebase/how-to-make-custom-css-changes/
You can make usage of the Custom CSS feature available in the backend or many of the blocks being used by the Fusion Builder, which comes with Avada, have the availability to configure certain design elements from within them.
If you do want to use a child theme, be aware that Avada uses many !important rules in their stylesheet while other styling is being handled by either the fusion builder or javascript logic.

I have a wordpress theme, and it looks good now, however, I want to add a custom html form to it. But when I put the code in it whith path to its own css and js. The form looks terrible because of the css from the theme.
Is there any plugin or option to fix this or do I need to do it by an other way?
I looked everywhere on the internet but couldt find any solution.
Any help is welcome.
Thanks alot.
CSS means cascading stylesheets, and that's because the CSS from the page cascades downwards onto all the elements on the page. You either have to manually reset the CSS before it hits your form, or you need to embed your form as an iframe to avoid the cascade.
Theme and bootstrap css will override input fields with ton's of styles. You don't have much options but to find and "ran over" problematic styles with your own.
Use !important only if needed.
I've created my website that compiles my scss (boostrap, node_modules, my own custom css) to a single file. Now I'm wondering what would be the best way of styling gutenberg blocks in the editor?
I want to keep the responsive nature of my blocks from bootstrap and my styling what would be the best approach to do this?
If I'm understanding correctly, you want the CSS file for the front-end of your site to also apply to the block editor?
If so, that's as simple as adding add_theme_support('editor-styles'); in your theme files (such as in functions.php).
I find it helpful to create a second block-editor stylesheet to use only in the editor. Sometimes I find the media query breakpoints are too different or just need to tweak the front-end styles a little for the editor. For that file, you can use wp_enqueue_script() on the enqueue_block_editor_assets action hook so it applies only to the editor.
I've got a local server set up and i've been editing the CSS of my child theme in Dreamweaver. I've now seen, through the WordPress dashboard, the additional CSS area and the Appearance > Editor.
What's the difference between them and do I need to choose one and stick to it? I was testing some code in the additional CSS box and then erased it but now the stuff i'm writing in Dreamweaver isn't updating when i view my site through the WordPress dashboard.
Thanks
Custom CSS allows you to add your own styles or override the default CSS of a plugin or theme.
And CSS, or Cascading Styles Sheets, is a way to style and present HTML. Whereas the HTML is the meaning or content, the style sheet is the presentation of that document.
If your newly added style rules doesn't seem to work you need to need to perform some troubleshooting steps
Scan your style file for missing ";" which can prevent following style
rules from being recognised.
Use inspect feature of your browser check for conflicts , style rules that override the css that doesn't work.
Test from a different browser and make sure that the css file loaded in your browser is the correct version not a previously cached one.
Here is a useful reference https://codex.wordpress.org/CSS_Troubleshooting
Also read about css priority and specificity rules.
you can use "!important" as a quick fix but it is not considered as a good practice.
Customizer settings are stored in the database and loaded after the main styles, lastly loaded rules override same previous rules if it has higher spesifisity.
I have de-enqued the WooCommerce default CSS styles.
I also enqued my own CSS style .
Now the question is how will I know which class names to use in my own CSS for styling the WooCommerce?
Will I copy the original CSS to my own CSS and then edit them? I don't know LESS and the original CSS is in compreseed form making it hard to edit it.
2ndly, is using the Firebug tool and then copying the CSS used is a good method to go with?
I want to know the most easiest method of using my own CSS on the WC templates.
Thank you
