 * Hi
 * I want to change the CSS in my installed plugin Woocommerce, but have come to
   the understanding that is a bad idea because the corrections disappear when updating
   the plugin.
 * I found that the solution is to only edit in the CSS of the child-theme I am 
   using. However it is like the CSS in the plugin is overwriting the child-theme
   CSS.
 * Can anybody tell how to either make the css in my child-theme be “in control”
   or in which folder to place a custom CSS file that will overwrite the CSS from
   the Woocommerce plugin?
 * I am using “Cubby” childtheme.
 * Best regards Berit

 * I found the solution eventhough I thought I had searched the whole internet: 
   One solution is a pluing called: “Simple Custom CSS”
