 * I have been trying to modify the colors being used in the theme and am having
   zero luck getting the modifications to take place regardless of whether I use
   the custom CSS box or the editor for the child theme.
 * I am at a real loss as to why these modifications are not happening. I feel like
   I must be missing something and it could be fairly obvious.
 * I’m only trying to modify the colors being used in the footer to be white and
   the text to be a particular shade of pink to have the site better branded with
   the logo.
 * Thanks in advance for any tips.

 * For changing the color being used in the footer to white use this css
 *     ```
       .footer-info {
           background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% rgb(255, 255, 255);
       	}
       ```
   
 * For changing text only use this code
 *     ```
       .copyright, .site-info {
           color: rgb(255, 20, 255);
   
       }
       ```
   
 * for changing anchor link text color use this
 *     ```
       .copyright a, .site-info a {
           color: rgb(255, 20, 255);
           text-decoration: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * You may want to the rgb values to your particular shade of pink values
 * hopefully this will help you
