I used rails generate scaffold for part of my application, and this looks fine so far. Now I would like to change a style for the <a> element, which happens to be defined in scaffold.css.scss. I don't want to touch the generated file, so I place the definition into my own file. I have one (rkanren.css.scss) which has CSS definitions which are used project wide. Testing the page, I see that my style change is not honoured. Using the "inspect" function of Google Chrome, I indeed see that the definition in scaffold.css overrides mine (although both are specific in giving a style to, say, a:visited). Next, I tried to place my scss file explicitly in the load order, for example: *= require rkanren *= require_tree . *= require_self But to no effect. I tried the other 5 permutations of this sequence too, but Chrome always shows that my definition is masked. What did I do wrong? I am using Rails 4.1.1. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
