I need to override the default CSS color for
.bbp-topics-front ul.super-sticky, .bbp-topics ul.super-sticky, .bbp-topics ul.sticky, .bbp-forum-content ul.sticky

But the default color declaration has an !important in it. What’s the best way to fix this so my color will display? I know I could hack the plugin CSS, but that’s not the best option. 🙂

Hi,
Is this a public site ? If you could post a link and tell us what you want to change exactly, we could have a look. I suppose it’s not bbPress that has the !important ?

Hi Pascal! Thanks for your quick reply!

Unfortunately, no — these forums are locked down to only approved users.

The CSS is in /plugins/bbpress/templates/default/css/bbpress.css, line 896:

/* =Stickies
-------------------------------------------------------------- */

.bbp-topics-front ul.super-sticky,
.bbp-topics ul.super-sticky,
.bbp-topics ul.sticky,
.bbp-forum-content ul.sticky {
	background-color: #ffffe0 !important;
	font-size: 1.1em;
}

I need to change that background color. But I’m not a CSS ninja, and I’m not sure how to override that !important from the default plugin CSS. This is when adding a 2nd !important to trump the first would be handy. 🙂

You can put this bbPress default themes CSS from the plugin into a folder called css in your child theme and edit the css file to your liking.
