# Negating Plugins CSS attributes

 * On my website (which is not live yet) I’ve got a plugin that is adding CSS to
   a page. When I go into the Inspect Element section in my browser, I can unclick
   the width statements on the class element and my website looks great. However,
   I’ve tried changing it through the main stylesheet (using !important to control
   the cascade) and I’m not able to replicate the results. I tried changing the 
   width to 100% and to inherit and both times it messed up the header area that
   I was trying to fix. Is there a way to simply remove a css attribute that is 
   being added by a plugin without editing the plugin’s code directory (to avoid
   problems with upgrades)?
 * The page that I’m working on is [http://wp.cacesl.org/get-involved/volunteer/](http://wp.cacesl.org/get-involved/volunteer/).
   I’m trying to get the images to fill the entire header section on large resolution
   screens (larger than about 1200 px wide). The line that I’m targeting through
   the inspect element is
 * <div class=”swm_logo_section swm_container”>
 * Like I said, when I select that, and uncheck both the width:1100px and the width:
   940px, it looks like I want with the image filling the whole header section. 
   I can’t seem to replicate it through a css style in my main style sheet.

 * Hi there,
 * A quick way that you could achieve this is
 * .swm_logo_section {
    width:100% !important; }
 * This puts the logo against the edge of main container and the social icons against
   the other.
    Is this what you are trying to achieve?
