    Overriding style_default.css with a child_theme

    Hello there!

    From somebody's suggestion, to modify the theme without losing the changes next time it's updated, I created a small child theme.
    I followed the tutorial recommended on this AppThemes's website and created a CSS file as follows:

    Code:
    /*
    Theme Name: Modified JobRoller
    Template: jobroller
    Version: 1.0
    */
    @import url("../jobroller/style.css");
    @import url("../jobroller/styles/style-default.css");
    Modifications of whatever is declared on style.css works out fine.
    But as soon as I'd like to modify something that is on style-default.css it doesn't work.

    For instance, removing the white border on the #header div doesn't work.

    Code:
    /*
    Theme Name: Modified JobRoller
    Template: jobroller
    Version: 1.0
    */
    @import url("../jobroller/style.css");
    @import url("../jobroller/styles/style-default.css");
    #header{border:0;}
    I tried to create a /styles/ folder into my child theme + a file called style-default.css, but it doesn't work as well.

    Many thanks for the help!
