Hi Martin,
unfortunately this is a general problem with child-themes, just search in Google for this problem. WordPress insert first the style.css file of the child-theme, then the original stlye.css from the parent theme, that’s why the parent style will overwrite always the styles from the child-theme. That’s why we don’t use child-themes.
The only thing you can do is to specify the “path” of the element you want to change, for example:
body #container #content .servicebox > div
instead of:
.servicebox > div
Or you make the style rules more important with the ” !important ” extension, i.e.
.sevicebox > div {
box-shadow:none !important;
}
Sorry, but we cannot change the way that WordPress use to add the css files in the child-themes…
