# CSS help

 * Hi,
 * First of all – thank you very much. I’ve been using this plugin for a while now,
   and I completely depend on it.
 * I need the credit to look a certain way – small font size, grey color, italicized,
   right justified… And I used to do that earlier by modifying a CSS file. I have
   always been slow to update, because updating meant losing the CSS changes. So
   I used to copy the CSS I want separately, update the plugin, and then paste the
   edited CSS on the CSS file.
 * But the past few updates, I haven’t been able to find the CSS. I’m on version
   3.03. I want to update, but I need to be know first how to edit the CSS.
 * BTW – I’m a coding novice. I get by with trial and error, and trying to think
   through the code. I just get the very basics.
 * Please – can you help me?

 * The CSS files are located in `<plugin-directory>/public/css/`. However, it would
   be preferable to either simply override the styles in your theme CSS or if you
   don’t want the standard stylesheet file to be loaded, to unhook the `media-credit`
   and/or `media-credit-end` stylesheets via [`wp_dequeue_style`](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_dequeue_style/).

 * I don’t know what unhooking means. Does it mean I just copy the CSS codes to 
   my main CSS file? Do I need to delete any file after I do that?
 * I had saved the CSS file from an earlier version – Can I just add that to the
   end of my CSS and then upgrade?
 * BTW – Thank you very much for the really REALLY fast reply, and thank you even‘
   mucher’ for responding to what is probably an extremely novice question.
 * //
    My code (that I had saved) is as below –
 * .media-credit {
    font-size: 9px; line-height: 8px; /*11px*/ text-align: right;
   margin: 0px 5px; display: block; color: #909090; } .media-credit a { font-weight:
   normal; font-size: 9px; } .media-credit-container { text-align: center; max-width:
   100%; } #recent-media-sidebar { float: right; text-align: center; width: 150px;
   margin-top: 10px; padding: 10px 0; border-top: 4px double #999; border-bottom:
   4px double #999; } #recent-media-sidebar .author-media { margin-bottom: 10px;}#
   recent-media-inline .author-media { float: left; margin-right: 5px; margin-bottom:
   5px; }

 * Things should work if you just add the styles to your theme’s CSS file (`style.
   css` in most cases). This is not the most efficent solution (the plugin’s CSS
   files are still loaded), but probably the easiest for you to implement.
 * “Unhooking” would mean modifying the loaded stylesheet files via some PHP functions
   from the WordPress API.

   has been resolved.
