Troubleshooting Common Issues

Styles Not Applying?

/* Increase specificity with more specific selectors */
.card.card {
  background-color: #your-color !important;
}

/* Or use !important declarations */
.btn-primary {
  background-color: #your-color !important;
}

Button Styling Problems?

/* Target all button states */
.btn-primary,
.btn-primary:active,
.btn-primary:focus,
.btn-primary:hover,
.btn-primary:visited {
  background-color: #your-color !important;
  border-color: #your-color !important;
}

Form Elements Not Styling?

/* Override Bootstrap form styles */
.form-control:focus {
  border-color: #your-color !important;
  box-shadow: 0 0 0 0.2rem rgba(your-brand-color-rgb, 0.25) !important;
}

Best Practices

1. Test with real content - Make sure styling works with different event names and descriptions

2. Check mobile responsiveness - Always test on various screen sizes

3. Use !important sparingly - Only when necessary to override existing styles

4. Consider accessibility - Ensure sufficient color contrast (4.5:1 minimum)

5. Start small - Make one change at a time and test thoroughly
