How are you editing base.css? And, are the changes saving, just not showing up?

Hi Kate,
In the base.css if I do
* { display: none; }
everything seems fine ie. nothing displays on page however if I do
#page { background: transparent; }
I still have the #page white background?
if I write the same code in firebug, #page white background gone!

What about `#page { background: transparent !important; }` does that work?

No mate nothing, if I put the same code in the custom css box it works fine?

hi... I'm new to this and this is my first site. I'm on my website and I press F12 and the firebug program comes up. I change a couple things with it and it works out on my page. I don't know how to save those changes though. Can you help me out. When I refresh the page it just goes back to how it was before.

You have to copy/paste the rules that you change and put them into the base.css file of your child theme OR in the custom css box in the theme settings page - custom code panel
