I have a component that is already built out like so:
const Banner = ({ image, heading, text }) => (
<Container>
<Background src={image}>
<BannerContent>
<h1>{heading}</h1>
<h2>{text}</h2>
</BannerContent>
</Background>
</Container>
);
const BannerContent = styled.div`
h1 {
font-size: 24px;
}
h2 {
font-size: 16px;
}
`;
and I'm trying to override the styles of the h1
and h2
and add new styles like so in another component:
const PageBanner = styled(Banner)`
h1 {
font-size: 20px;
width: ...
}
h2 {
font-size: 13px;
width: ...
}
`;
However, none of that is happening. I'm assuming it's because it's nested in there? Am I able to override the styles? Or should I just build a similar component to it?
If you are styling one of your own custom components, you must make sure you use the className
prop that styled components gives to the component.
const Banner = ({ image, heading, text, className }) => (
<Container className={className}>
<Background src={image}>
<BannerContent>
<h1>{heading}</h1>
<h2>{text}</h2>
</BannerContent>
</Background>
</Container>
);
const PageBanner = styled(Banner)`
h1 {
font-size: 20px;
width: ...
}
h2 {
font-size: 13px;
width: ...
}
`;
