Altitude Pro Theme: How to change the colour of a button?

[t-west]

Hello,

I'm hoping someone has an answer or insight into my problem.

I've created a button with text: "BOOK NOW" in the third front widget section. The button automatically came up grey. I want to change the colour of the button away from grey.

I went into the CSS here:

.image-section .button.clear {
border-color: #ddd;
color: #ddd;
}

I changed the colour at this piece of code and nothing changed; still grey.

Thanks in advance for any help 🙂

You need to use the correct property for the button background.

    background-color: red;

Thanks for that but the button is still grey ...

Any other possibilities?

Post your code please.

Add !important

.front-page-3 .button {
	background-color: red!important;
}

Tested this and it works.

Thanks so much, that worked! Adding "!important" made the difference.

Is there a danger of using "!important" too much within the code?

Not in a child theme.
