 * Hello, I am in desperate need of some assistance. I have a wootheme theme on 
   my wordpress site. I have been able to customize it to my taste, all but one 
   issue. I would xontact wootheme support, but for days the website has bee inaccessible
   for some reason.
    My issue is this: I am trying to change the sidebar tabs from#
   9f9f9f to a blue color. The problem is, when I use firebug to get this: #sidebar
   h3 { background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #9F9F9F; color: #FFFFFF; display: inline;
   float: left; font-size: 12px; margin: 0 0 10px 1px; padding: 8px 14px; } I change
   the color 9f9f9f to what I want it to be, however nothing happens when I save
   and refresh. And when I open firebug again to see if there has been an override(
   Line through the original) there is nothing except what was there to begin with.
 * Please will someone help me to fix this, I would be willing to allow someone 
   temp access, I have been struggling for three days and Im extremely frustrated,
   as it is a seemingly small detail.
    Thanks so much [Ridquest.com](http://ridquest.com)

 * As you are using a commercial theme, you need to seek support from the theme’s
   vendors.

 * We do **not** support premium themes as you paid for support when you bought 
   the theme. It is not our place to deprive theme vendors of any income that they
   may derive from support services.
