Custom CSS code doesn't work with Bootstrap 5 - html

For example I'm trying to set body background color in style.css, but code doesn't work.
My link to Bootstrap 5 and custom CSS:
<link href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap#5.2.3/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css">
This code doesn't work:
body {
background-color: black !important;
}
Only Bootstrap class works for me:
<body class = "bg-black">
I was trying to add !important after background-color but it didn't helped. Similar questions haven't solved my problem yet.

It may be due to error:404 which means browser did not find the specified file.
Add the correct path to solve the issue.
For example if you have a folder 'webfiles' and CSS file in one level and html code is inside 'webfiles', you should use ../
The link will be
../style.css
Note that your link to CSS file should be below all Bootstrap style link.

How can I load a custom CSS for a few lines in my code?

I want to use Bootstrap for dropdown content, and it works perfectly fine, however, it than overrides the default CSS I'm using on my website and most of the things are looking awful below that button. I have tried to unload the CSS (Bootstrap) after I don't need it with the following code, but it is not working.
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery('link[href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css"]').prop('disabled', true);
</script>
Link your default.css file below the bootstrap.css. default.css style definitions will override bootstrap.css
<link href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap#5.0.0-beta1/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="default.css">

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css2/css2.css"> not working

I've been trying to connect html with the CSS.
I've checked that:
The stylesheet path of the css is correct, and it is: css2/css2.css
The <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css2/css2.css" /> code is well written and I think it is.
I also tried to try several code editors in case it was a preview problem, I've already tried Atom and brackets and the two do not show that the CSS gets connected.
HTML code :
The html close tag is written too at the bottom.
CSS
here is where the html and CSS file is placed
As you have mentioned in your statement that css files is css/css2.css
so it means you should link css file by this code.
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/css2.css" />
You added css2 instead of css as folder name
This code will 100% work, Just make sure your HTML file and CSS2 folder need to be on same level (in same folder).
otherwise this CSS file not link to your HTML.

Bootstrap Carousel is overriding my own styles in html

I am VERY new to html and have very limited skills so please bear with me.
I am trying to put an infinite image carousel with links on the front page of my website. But Bootstrap overrides my web styles. I thought I knew where my styles where( I obviously do not) and tried to add them after the carousel but it did not work.
I need the carousel in a specific place on the page.
I tried putting the carousel in a table or adding etc.(pretty much anything I could think of) all in vain. Not sure what to do as I am far from being a master code writer......
any help with this would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thank you in advance!!!
In almost all cases for bootstrap that I am aware of, Bootstrap styles will not override custom styles if you load your own styles after the bootstrap styles.
correct way:
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="link-to-boostrap.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="custom-styles.css">
</head>
incorrect way:
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="custom-styles.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="link-to-boostrap.css">
</head>
Stylesheets should always be in the header except for very specific circumstances.
If you are putting styles directly on the page in a <style> tag you can move them to the external style sheet following these instuctions: https://www.w3schools.com/css/css_howto.asp

changing colors of HTML elements with skeleton

can someone tell me how I can change for example the background-color globaly.
I made it with ''. Whitout skeleton I would do it classic with a style.css file based in css directory.
When I try to change the body entrys in the skeleton.css file, nothing happened :(
What is the to do for skeleton?
Thank you in advance.
Skeleton doesn't change anything about how html and css will interact. Skeleton is basically just pre-built css file. You can still include styles.css with a second link tag, i.e.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/skelton.css"/>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/styles.css"/>

Force CSS Style

I have a wordpress theme which have its default styling, I developed a new page template and wrote some styles specifically for it but for some reason the styles aren't being applied.
The styles include table cell-padding.
When inspecting the code, the css I applied is being stroked out. How can I force that CSS to apply itself. I have already tried using the !important but still no success
usually if you are developing your own theme for wordpress that there are no problems with the application of styles possible presence of an error in the connection of style, even when finished remaking theme personally I have no problems
Sometimes you have to use all classes and ids of div to declare style for it. Anyway you shouldn't use !important, but try to describe your div precisely.
Write CSS (stylesheet) at the end of the all css files in header, Write css in Hierarchy level. select parent class or id and written down css
CSS Declaration in Header
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="defaultwordpress.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="own.css">
</head>
Can you make sure your own CSS code is called after the main CSS code ?
Maybe by changing the order of CSS calls in your head section like this :
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="defaultWordpress.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="myOwn.css">
</head>
edit : default Wordpress css first :-)
