It is best to add it to the child theme so that it does not affect all the other themes .
I guess what's best is what's best. To me, if I never want the rss showing, and if I use bootstrap, I would change it one central place for all subthemes. but to each his own. we always think differently - you know that.
I may not provide the completed solution you might desire, but I do try to provide honest suggestions to help you solve your issue.
you might want to remove one or the other of the changes in custom.css
you should be fine.
your css web pages are cached by something (cloudflare or something), very difficult to develop unless you turn it off. Take a nap and then come back in a few hours the rss link will be gone.

@vrijvlinder - the changes to the child theme were prior to overwriting the Bootstrap files in my themes folder. Should I do that again? I still can't see the successful change. I've never seen a caching problem this invasive.
Yes , and it does work. The first one does not do anything if the second one is !important but you only need one I suggest the one with MItem class since that means Meta Item. You may want to add an rss span elsewhere and that would prevent it showing.

It happens. I know it is a pain that is why I use those tools that force load the newest version of the file. Otherwise you can also try deleting all the .ini files in the cache folder every time. But it is best to just reload using that tool.. I know it works much better in chrome, I am on a mac so that also could be why but it can be anything.
The benefit of adding it to the child theme, is that if you switch themes and forget you took it off then you might want it and not know why it is not there.
The custom.css will affect all of the child themes.
make sure you do not use Minify plugin or pagespeed or anything of that nature
vrijvlinder and I both agree - it is unusal, but it has been known to happen.
yes perhaps
a sixpack of beer,
a bottle of tequila,
an asprin,
and call us in the morning (12 hours from now) , whichever comes later) if you don't see the changes.
We guarantee your changes will work (or your money back from - you to you), because you are frittering your time away now. it works, but you won't see it until later.

... still here, not drinking yet... Got it! sort of... I was able to Reload CSS in both Firefox and Chrome BUT when I do a browser refresh, they come back???? Is that normal? Will that be corrected after the binge drinking?
The reason it comes back after refresh is because it is still fetching the old page. You can try to delete the cache on both browsers including history and cookies.

Sorry I had to step away from the party... I've tried to catch back up quickly...
From the fresh install, the only change I made to Bootstrap was the custom.css (I added both which may only complicate things; I don't know)

@peregrine - thanks; I hate to ask it BUT which one do you recommend I remove?
Yes , and it does work. The first one does not do anything if the second one is !important but you only need one I suggest the one with MItem class since that means Meta Item. You may want to add an rss span elsewhere and that would prevent it showing.

whatever vrijvlinder says - she's the boss lady.
me I'd use the top, until I had a need to change it.

ok. I checked my cPanel and Supercacher was running. I cleared it for the forum.showstuff.org domain but... (you guessed it...)
I also changed the custom.css to only reflect the span.MIten.RSS...!important code.

It works, I can see the code in the file and everything. Just go have a beer and later it will be fine.

Yes it will get sorted with time.
