 * Has anyone got custom css to work on this set of shortcodes, particularly on 
   toggles? I’ve tried custom css on the titles in 2 different themes on 2 different
   websites and have not been able to get custom css to work.
 * Most recently I used an example of custom css that John Gardner suggested in 
   another support thread and this is what I get:

 * Any suggestions?

 * Hi geologist,
 * Sorry for the trouble you’re having. One option available is to completely override
   the plugin’s CSS call by including a file (in your case `arconix-shortcodes.css`)
   in your theme’s directory and the plugin will load that file instead of the plugin’s
   version. You can read more about that here: [http://arconixpc.com/2012/rolling-your-own-css-and-javascript](http://arconixpc.com/2012/rolling-your-own-css-and-javascript)
 * Alternatively, you can add your own styles to your style.css file, just make 
   sure to use `!important` declarations if overriding my styles because my stylesheet
   will be loaded after your theme’s style.css in 99% of cases.
 * I loaded your linked website, but looking through Chrome’s dev tools I don’t 
   see any of your styles getting overridden by mine. How are you making your modifications?

 * John,
 * I’ll try putting the css file in my root directory.
 * I modify with Notepad++ and upload with FTP. I do this all the time with CSS 
   files so I’m sure it works.
 * Thanks for the quick response.
