 * When modifying the CSS I can customize some items, but there are some that won’t
   change, even if I append !important.
 * First, I tried modifying the simple-pull-quote/css/simple-pull-quote.css file,
   and it let me modify width, float,and background-color. However, it won’t let
   me change font-size, font-weight or color, even after append !important to all
   of them.
 * I tried at my child theme’s css file, and at the father theme’s css, but to no
   avail.
 * This is the code as modified:
 *     ```
       .simplePullQuote{
       	width:90%;
       	float:center;
       	background-color:#FFFFFF !important;
       	font-size:18px !important;
       	font-weight:bold !important;
       	color:#818181 !important;
       	border-top:3px #F16E2D solid;
       	border-bottom:3px #FFFFFF solid;
       	background: top left no-repeat url("../images/quote.png");
       	text-indent:10px;
       	padding:6px;
       	margin:10px 0px 10px 10px;
       	-webkit-box-shadow: 7px 7px 8px #818181;
         	-moz-box-shadow: 7px 7px 8px #818181;
       	-moz-box-shadow: 6px 6px 7px 0px #818181 !important;
       	-webkit-box-shadow: 6px 6px 7px 0px #818181 !important;
       	box-shadow: 6px 6px 7px 0px #818181 !important;}
       ```

 * [@cdiazg](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cdiazg/) – The issue is likely 
   in your theme, as the .simplepullquote css doesn’t use any “!important” declarations.
   You should be able to override the style by using css as follows:
 *     ```
       body .simplePullQuote {
         // add your styles here
       }
       ```
