I love that one. You can also use the find command, but I can never
remember the syntax for it, so I use the locate command. It does
suffer from one gotcha, though. The locate database is refreshed on
reboot (maybe also on log-in when switching accounts). If you've made
changes recently and haven't rebooted (or logged in), then locate
won't find them unless you do the sudo updatedb command first to
refresh the database. As long as you remember that, it's a great
command to have in your toolbox.

Did you do the sudo updatedb command first? Also, your copy of Geany
might use the ~/.config/geany/geany.css file if it exists, so you
could try creating it, putting a CSS rule into it, and then loading
up Geany to see what happens. If it doesn't work, you can always
remove what you created.

Mine contains a rather cryptic notebook selector in it that makes the
active tab visually easier to distinguish (absolutely necessary in
KDE), and thanks to this thread, it now also contains this new
rule:
statusbar {
font-weight: bold;
}

Yep. Any time you change the CSS for any program, you have to reload
the program to see the changes.

In that case, yes, but it may be required for some selectors.

That's good to hear. I've been following this thread and I tried to
figure out how to change the background color of the sidebar, but
haven't had any luck. A lot of Google searches have yet to turn up
anything beyond a small handful of selectors that can be used with
Geany and none of them are for the sidebar. A complete list of Geany
selectors would be nice.
