5,020 PointsGetting an error on the right answer to exercise on extending placeholders
I'm getting an error that the .p inside .messsage-box is not red, and asking if I extended %warning correctly.
I tested this solution out in the workspace and it generated the correct result.
%warning { font-weight: bold; color: red; } .message-box { .p { @extend %warning; } }
What am I missing?
.roundy {
width: 150px;
border-radius: 50%;
}
.img-author {
@extend .roundy;
}
%warning {
font-weight: bold;
color: red;
}
.message-box {
.p {
@extend %warning;
}
}

25,189 PointsAh,all you have to do is delete the . before the p and that should make you pass like this :
.roundy {
width: 150px;
border-radius: 50%;
}
.img-author {
@extend .roundy;
}
%warning {
font-weight: bold;
color: red;
}
.message-box {
p { // like this right here and you should pass
@extend %warning;
}
}
