Tell us what you are trying to do?
I am working on a staging site which is updated with the latest toolset plugins while the original site is not.
The problem I am having is that my custom css code for col-sm-2 does not seem to work on the staging site which means that the space between columns are much wider than they should be. I believe that the problem may be due to a recent update so tried to update toolset types on the 'old' site but get an error saying 'Update failed: Download failed. Forbidden' - see attached image 'update-failed'.
So the question is, how can I override the bootstrap css?
I have attached 2 additional images where you also can see the css code:
- col-sm-2-orig this is the 'old site where I could overwrite the code with custom css
- col-sm-2-staging this is the 'new' site where I have the same custom css but it is not recognised
What is the link to your site?
thegreataddress.com
staging1.thegreataddress.com

Hello, can you clarify a bit? How is this overriding CSS added in the live site? Is it in Appearance > Customizer: Additional CSS, or in a View's CSS editor, or in Layouts CSS, or in a style tag in some content area?
Also, I'm having some trouble getting past the HTTP authentication on staging. Can you check and provide updated login credentials in the private reply fields here if necessary?
Got it, thanks. I was able to log in and I'm investigating the issue now. Not sure why the CSS added in Appearance > Customize is not injected into the page just yet, but I'll let you know what I find out. I may need to temporarily deactivate some plugins and activate a default theme during my tests, but I'll revert to the way I found it once I'm done testing.
Hi Christian,
OK, thanks for the update.
Best regards
Seems like it was a CSS syntax quirk. This was the original code in Additional CSS:
I adjusted the classname selectors like so:
I see the CSS injected now and your padding overrides are applied as expected. Can you confirm this is correct now?

My issue is resolved now. Thank you so much!
