Hi ,

Im doing some basic tweaking and adding rules to CSS and its fitting my needs, but i had a general question about CSS… will applying alot of (!important) rules to a custom CSS plugin slow down performance or effect the site in a negative way?

    It shouldn’t have a negative effect on the speed of your site. Most CSS plugins add the CSS as inline styles in your header. This will increase your page size slightly, but not by much.
