Stuck On Task 4 For This Code Challenge (Sass Advanced Nesting Code Challenge)

I can't seem to figure out the last step to this challenge, I don't know if it's obvious and I'm just missing it. Also I couldn't locate an example in the video that pertains to the final task. Again I might just be overthinking the challenge, but a little help would be appreciated.

Hi Derek,

Can't really give you any help as you haven't given us the question or any code you have. We have no idea what your stuck on as the only information we have is what you tell us, and that's nothing really.

When you're looking for help you need to post the full challenge question, the code in the challenge before you try to pass the challenge and the code you have wrote to pass the challenge.

Hope this helps.

Yesss very tricky. I spent hours on this....

The answer is:

div.footer & { color:purple; }

Thank you, that solved my issue, for some reason, I was adding a space between "div" and ".footer".

I just finished this, and I agree--I like the instructor, but this was a terrible question. It's looking for divs with a class of "footer", not just anything with a class of "footer". Terrible. I just spent an hour on it before I went to the forum.
