12,091 PointsFinding custom styles in wordpress
I am customizing a wordpress theme. And the them documentations says the following:
If creating a child theme is more than you need or beyond your abilities, you can still make CSS customizations that will override the default Alien Ship styles by creating a file called custom.css in the custom folder within the alienship folder. It would live in wp-content/themes/alienship/custom/custom.css.
So I have created the custom.css file. And it works if I make adjustments from the backend. I am wondering if, or how can I pull this through to the wordpress admin and then when I want to make quick tweeks to the custom.css file I can just do it from there(wordpress admin).

Appearance > Editor
on the right-hand side, lists all your files, under the bold heading Stylesheets, should be your custom.css file.
