k2 articles not working correctly

Hi,

I've installed the simplicity template for joomla 3.0 but k2 articles do not pull through k2.css from k2 components folder. Instead it looks at k2.css in simplicity folder. I'm trying to customise the way k2 articles look so I was going to call a few custom classes via the item.php (in components/com_k2/templates/default/item.php) but any changes I make here are not reflected on the website. I've even deleted elements from this page but they still show up on the site. It seems the website is not using these template files (no sure how it could be possible) but I can't figure out which files it's using. Has anyone else experienced any issues with k2? Any info will be hugely appreciated.

Thanks,
Yasin

Hi,
they don't work becasue our template override some k2 views. Overrided files you will find in html/com_k2/ folder located inside template folder. Edit those files and you will see changes.
