Media Query Help!

[LeaChristine]

Hi guys, so I am having an issue with my media queries and I’m not sure why– in my child theme, I am trying to scale the slider on my homepage and also re-space my footer widgets for different screen sizes– the 320px/iphone resolution is working fine, but for some reason when I try to do media queries for larger screen sizes like 480 or 768, all my code is being ignored. I’m almost positive I have my brackets in the right place, so can anyone tell me what I’m doing wrong? I appreciate any pointers, thanks!


Here is what I have-- so far, I am just trying to resize the homepage slider and make sure the footer widgets are fitted correctly:

It would be easier if you provide a link to your page and then we can troubleshoot live in a browser with dev tools.
