Parent style is the default style. Custom style is a child of the default.
I'm forcing the custom child style on user groups that have been promoted to a certain level.

I'm not forcing the custom child style on the guests, but they're seeing it anyway.

I have a feeling it might be because I'm using it slightly different that you have it for your own forums (your default is a child style, and what you're forcing is the parent). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
I think it may be a problem with style permissions, either a style is selectable or it is not, there are no usergroup permissions for styles by default, well, not without a hack.

The solution for you may be:

This question has been asked a few times: What if you need custom style permissions so that you can control which usergroups see/select what styles? The hack I use is Andreas's Restrict Style to Usergroup hack which he released for v3.5.x. It is because of that hack that this one exists, and I have tested it on both v3.5.x, v3.6.x and v3.7.x, and it works for both and works fine with my hacks for both versions as well.

For instance on my own forum I need to use both hacks, as the style I force on my guests and normal members is not selectable or do I allow them permission to use it, and is also not my default style (all my other styles are child styles of my default one), so without Andreas's hack I would not be able to do this.

But just to let you know that Andreas's hack is unsupported and is not likely to ever be supported, so if you have problems with it, you are on your own.
