CSS Specificity Issues - Can't Override Styles
Styles can't be overridden despite being written after conflicting rules. !important needed everywhere. Third-party styles override custom styles. CSS cascade not working as expected.
CSS specificity determines which rule applies when conflicts occur. Higher specificity always wins. Understanding selector specificity is essential.
Common Causes
- Inline styles (highest specificity) overriding classes
- ID selectors (#id) overriding classes
- !important in external library styles
- Not understanding specificity calculation
- Rule order not matching cascade in HTML
How to Fix It
Specificity order (lowest to highest):
1. Element selectors (1 point)
2. Class selectors (10 points)
3. ID selectors (100 points)
4. Inline styles (1000 points)
5. !important (overrides all)
Override library styles using higher specificity or !important only when necessary:
/* Override bootstrap */
.container { max-width: 1200px !important; }Real developers can help you.

15+ years shipping production infrastructure for startups. Former CTO at qed.builders (acquired by The Sandbox).
Cursor ambassador and agentic tooling builder.
I've scaled systems, automated deployments, and built observability tools for AI coding workflows. I specialize in taking vibe-coded apps from broken prototype to production-ready: fixing Supabase auth/RLS, Stripe integrations, deployment pipelines, and cleaning up AI-generated spaghetti.
I build tools in this space (agentprobe, claudebin, micode) and understand both sides: how AI generates code and why it breaks.

Jacek Rozanski
Senior PHP/Symfony developer and DevOps engineer with 20+ years of professional experience, running opcode.pl (web development agency, est. 2004).
Day job: I'm the sole backend developer at merketing company where I own and maintain 11 PHP/Symfony microservices on AWS (ECS Fargate, RDS, S3, CloudFront), handle the full CI/CD pipeline (Bitbucket Pipelines, Docker), and manage monitoring with Sentry and CloudWatch. These services handle high request volumes in production every month.
What I bring to AI-built apps:
- I audit and fix security issues (OWASP methodology), performance bottlenecks, and architectural problems in codebases generated by Cursor, Claude Code, Lovable, Bolt, and v0
- I refactor AI-generated prototypes into production-grade applications with proper error handling, testing, and clean architecture (SOLID, DDD, hexagonal architecture)
- I set up the infrastructure AI tools don't touch: AWS hosting, CI/CD pipelines, automated deployments, database optimization, monitoring, and alerting
- I integrate external services: payment providers, email systems, partner APIs, SSO/auth
Tech stack: PHP 8.x, Symfony, React, Next.js, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Docker, AWS (ECS, RDS, S3, SQS/SNS, CloudFront), Terraform, Supabase. I also use AI tools daily (Claude Code, Cursor) in my own workflow, so I understand both the strengths and the gaps in AI-generated code.
Based in Poland (CET timezone). Available for async work and calls during EU/US business hours.

You don't need to be technical. Just describe what's wrong and a verified developer will handle the rest.

Can I use !important everywhere?
Bad practice. Use higher specificity instead. !important makes debugging harder. Only use when truly necessary.
How do I calculate specificity?
Element=1, class=10, ID=100, inline=1000. Higher number wins. Use CSS Specificity Calculator tool to verify.
