Hi there Gigi,
When you create the style.css file in the child theme you can add any and all css that you wish to use to make any changes on the site. Soon as you setup the child theme you’ll be ready to go. Here’s a link to help you create a child theme if you need it.
Hope this helps. If you have any further questions feel free to ask.

Hi Wolfs bRain. Thank you so much for replying. I’m still confused and I have another wordpress blog that has a child theme which works, but his one doesn’t seem to work.
I changed the default.css to the colors below:
************************
#header-2 {
padding-top: 15px;
width: 100%;
}
/* 4. Links
——————————————————- */
a {
color: #ff0000;
/* original color: #008000;*/
}
a:hover,
a:focus,
a:active {
color: #ffffff;
/* original color: #009900;*/;
}
#content a {
transition: 0.2s all ease;
-webkit-transition: 0.4s all ease;
}
************************
I added the child theme and changed the style.css to:
************************
/*
Theme Name: Fifteen
Theme URI: http://www.mywebsite.com/
Description: This is a custom child theme I have created.
Author: my name
Author URI: http://www.mywebsite.com/
Template: fifteen
Version: 1.0
*/
@import url(“../fifteen/style.css”);
#header-2 {
padding-top: 15px;
width: 100%;
}
/* 4. Links
——————————————————- */
a {
color: #e6e6e6;
/* original color: #008000;*/
}
a:hover,
a:focus,
a:active {
color: #ffffff;
/* original color: #009900;*/;
}
#content a {
transition: 0.2s all ease;
-webkit-transition: 0.4s all ease;
}
************************
I changed the link color to red in the default.css and gray in the style.css.
The style.css doesn’t seem to be over-ridding the default.css in the skins folder because the links are still red. What am I missing? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Thank you.
