 * Hello,
 * I am currently working with Athena Pro on one of my sites and I would like to
   change the height of the Featured Widgets beneath the jumbotron.
 * I have created a child theme to make these customization’s. I have found in the
   style.css file within the inc folder:
 * #athena-featured{
    width: 100%; min-height: 320px; background: #e1e1e1; color:#
   000;
 *  text-align: center;
    overflow: hidden; z-index: 0; position: relative; } #athena-
   featured .featured-box{ padding: 50px 30px; min-height: 320px; cursor: pointer;}
 * I tried changing different combinations of min-height and adding max-height, 
   then entering those into the custom CSS section of the theme customizer to no
   avail.
 * So I tried uploading an altered style.css to both the child theme directory and
   the original theme directory on my server and again no avail.
 * I also have been trying to find where the “class= col-sm-4 featured-box featured-
   box1” and subsequent feature boxes are being defined but I am struggling, I could
   just be misunderstanding this statement all together I am relatively new to HTML,
   PHP, and JavaScript. I thought maybe somewhere in that definition the height 
   is being defined as well.
 * I also made sure I was loading the attempted changed webpages with an empty cache
   just in case it was loading an older version from that.
 * Any help and direction would be appreciated. Also a big thank you for structuring
   and organizing your theme so well and leaving comments defining whats happening!!
   It is much appreciated despite my predicament. 🙂

 * Well I ended up figuring out how to do it. It wasn’t an issue with the coding
   I was attempting. It ended up being an issue with how I configured the child 
   theme.
 * I used the Child Theme Configuator plugin and checked the box to make a seperate
   CTC style.css and for whatever reason no matter where I plugged in the changes
   to #athena-feature style.css or ctc.css it wouldn’t translate to the page.
 * I ended up re configuring the child theme (because I broke the site and had to
   roll back to the original theme haha I guess that’s one reason why we use child
   themes) and this time I did not seperate the style sheets for all of the second
   loaded style sheets in your theme. When I plugged my code into that configured
   sheet it worked like a charm!
 * Now I’m wondering how I can change the customizer.php file as I want to add more
   granularity to the jumbotron height setting. Any help on this tid-bit would be
   appreciated!
 * Thank you again!
