    From what I have read the x-child->style.css should allow you to write custom css.
    I have moved a bunch of css from the customizer->custom->edit global css portion of the site to the style.css file located in my child theme folder for easier editing. However now the theme does not recognize any of the styling. Is there something else that I need to do to get this working.

    Thanks,
    Eric

    Hmmm… after reading through several other very similar post to mine it is starting to look like the only way to add custom css to the x-child theme is in the customizer. If so this makes the X theme less attractive to anyone looking to do large scale CSS modifications.

    Please let me know if I am wrong on this.

    Thanks,
    Eric

    Hi Eric,

    Some settings are controlled through the Customizer and it will be output as internal CSS. So you external CSS from Child Theme will be overwritten. So we always suggest to do the tweaks using Customizer > Custom > CSS. If you think you have large scale CSS and want to use Child Theme then you need to use higher level selector or !important tag.

    By higher level selector, I am referring like :

    body .x-navbar li > a instead of .x-navbar li > a

    Hope this makes sense.

    Thanks for the reply.

    I have resorted to using my preferred CSS editor and then copying and pasting it over. A compromise that still requires an added step that FTP would have automated for me.
