Customize option overwrites child theme settings

    Recently updated to Hueman v3.1.1. A new Customize option is in place since our last (not recent) upgrade on http://the-silent-partner.com.
    In the Customising ▸ Global settings General Design Options : Font,…, the menu background option destroyed our menu settings because it overwrote the ‘tansparent’. We fixed this in the child theme style.css, however the Customize option overwrote it, until ‘!important’ was added.

    Shouldn’t the child theme have precedence over the Customize option?

    @media only screen and (min-width: 720px) {
#nav-header.nav-container {
background-color: transparent !important;  /* 20160430 overrule customizer setting */
}

    Hi stainsbyte. Welcome to the Hueman forum. The customizer styles are added at the end of the <head> section. Since they are declared after the child theme style.css file is loaded, they take precedence. The customizer styles are only loaded if they have been changed. You can remove the Header Nav Background color in the customizer by deleting the hex value, clicking outside the box, then Save & Publish. Then you shouldn’t need the !important rule in your child theme css.

    Thank you this has worked. I am experiencing further problems relating to the author line and the footer, which I will post separately.
