Creating a custom design for a Bootstrap Modal using CSS styling

I have been working on a bootstrap modal that includes an image, and everything is functioning correctly. However, I am facing an issue with changing the styling of the button.

Despite my attempts to modify the button's color by using its class in CSS, it does not seem to respond to my changes.

      <div class="modal-footer">

  </div>
</div>
<style>
.btn.btn-info.btn-lg {
    background-color: red;
}    
</style>

Answer №1

Instead of using background-color, consider switching to background. This change is necessary because certain classes like .btn-info may have properties like background-image with linear-gradient values that could impact the button styling if not overridden.

You should also remember to override the border-color property to ensure that a blue border is not applied to a red button.
