* Hello…I installed Custom Sidebar, and its great…However, I noticed that it is
not using any of the CSS style from my current Theme…
* I tried to research this topic, but am still abit confused on what to do, and
why its lacks the style.
* Any help would be greatly appreciated.
* Thanks.

* Hi [@wpdragon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpdragon/)
* It should get css from your current theme. In case, if it doesn’t happen you
can use !important in the css to force it.
* Would you please share me a link of your site, so that I can check?
* Cheers

* Hi [@ashok](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ashok/) – thank you for the response…
I am actually working on the site locally, so its not live.
* Where would I actually put !important in the CSS?

* The CSS style on the “Custom Sidebar” does not seem to work on any pages…however,
all the other regular sidebars on other pages work fine.
* > >
* Above is the code that is on my php file..example: (single.php) & (single-custom-
page.php) — depending on the name of the Sidebar I place the appropriate name–
in this case I have a Custom Sidebar called ‘Game Post Sidebar’
* Im not sure if that helps…but I do not know why only the Custom Sidebar is not
picking up the style of the pages….however all the regular sidebars are fine.

I had in my Style.css — and still nothing changed….Your help is appreciated.
thanks.

* Hello [@wpmu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpmu/) DEV
* Thank you very much for your reply…I actually found an alternative way to include
sidebars…so, I am taking a different route. The theme was actually purchased
from ThemeForest.
* Thanks again.
