    Hello XStore Support Team,

    I am currently customizing my site using an XStore Child Theme and I am running into a CSS architecture issue regarding the Global CSS (located in Theme Options > Theme Custom CSS > Global CSS).

    The CSS placed in this panel is injected directly into the of the site within an inline

    Hello @Dominic Legare,

    The custom CSS you add in the Theme Options is combined into a single CSS file along with all other CSS settings and is then loaded on your website’s frontend. If you prefer to have a separate CSS file for your custom styles, please add your custom CSS to the “xstore-child/style.css” file.

    If you have any further questions, please clarify your request in more detail and include screenshots to help us better understand your issue.

    Best regards,

    Yes we have created the style.css in that file but global css from theme is loaded after child style.css so we can’t see that code

    Hello @Dominic Legare,

    The child theme stylesheet will always be loaded after the main styles, as it depends on the parent theme’s style file. If you notice that some styles in your child theme are not being applied, you can refine the structure of your CSS. For example:
    .mini-cart-buttons a → body .mini-cart-buttons a

    If you have any specific questions, please, clearify in details what code does not work as you would like to have. Screenshots or videos are good solution to display examples of such areas.

    Best regards,
