Merged idea

This idea has been merged into another idea. To comment or vote on this idea, please visit WEBFLOW-I-893 Ability to style CSS Combinators: combo classes, pseudo classes, nested classes.

Nested "children of" styles Merged

Since day one I missed the ability to apply styles by tag name or to all children within a parent class / tag name, for instance:

.parent-class a{
      color:blue;
}

div a{
      color:yellow;
}

.parent-class .children-class{
      color:red;
}

    I wish I could vote more times for this and am surprised it doesn't have more votes.

    Cannot believe this still doesn't exist in Webflow. Just started learning Webflow and using it for the last week. This. Is. Driving. Me. Crazy.

    Apparently, development of this feature was happening in May 2014 (https://forum.webflow.com/t/how-do-i-apply-nested-styles/1618/5#post_6). Hmm...

    Looks like we can do this with Rich Text, but don't understand why it's limited to that. This should be standard throughout the whole site for cleaner markup.

    I = can't believe this feature does not exist still! Even after the countless updates to Webflow. For a company which prides itself in producing clean code on export, not having this feature is quite incredible... I've lost count the amount of times I've had to name every child element with a class which could be achieved by naming the parent...  I custom-code any parent class styles to save hours of development time. 

    The ability to code SASS in the CSS editor would be a good interim solution for those who can code...

    Yes! This would cut down on the nested to style nested children over and over again and produce cleaner markup.
