CSS Customization for Freshy

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi all…
    Handicapped by a little ignorance of CSS, a basic question on this theme – after purchasing the CSS upgrade, if I copy-paste the CSS Stylesheet in the editing box, and save it, why do the menu navigation bar, and a few other things disappear, leaving behind the structure?

    cheers!
    Thanks!

    Sorry…the link…http://eyeforaneye.wordpress.com
    And when I say the structure, i mean the glossy navigation bar, and the custom header image, the image background for the sidebar, search form, etc.
    Do I need to save those images separately and then upload the same in the same the stylesheet before copy-pastying it in the editing box?
    Does it have to be so cumbersome?

    Are you trying to copy and paste a new style sheet on top of another? If that is the case, the only theme that it works on is Sandbox, and then only with themes that have been modified to work here. The underlying html files also control the theme, and we don’t have access to those.

    If you have new images, yes, you have to upload them first. And then you have to edit the stylesheet to include the references to where those images are stored.

    And you do understand that there is no official support for CSS, right? And that only a few people in the forums can help you?

    Yes Vivianpaige, I do understand that…its the people on the forum who volunteer to bail out newbies such as me, and I hope I get to repay that sometime soon..:)..

    But yes, I was trying to copy the new style sheet on the existing editing box which comes by default. I just thought I would change the fonts on the header and try and see if I can get my hands dirty on other stuff lying around…basically, I was hoping that I could do something more to the styling on the page without affecting the basic look of it – the navigation bar, etc…but I do understand that it is being controlled by the underlying html, which we do not have access to…

    Thanks anyways…

    If your just looking to mess around with the css file of a page, and not play with the html, the best thing you can do is not paste over everything on the original css code, but just take it small step by step making sure all of the references to div classes and id’s are kept the same.

    I had the same problem. I wanted to change the background color of the theme (Rounded) and now it doesn’t have the design at the top anymore. And I have no idea how to change it back to the original design.

    Anyone know how to change it back? I’ve already messed with the themes and going back a couple of pages, but that hasn’t worked.

    Thanks!

    Just delete everything in the CSS editor, keep the toggle ON for “Add this to…” and save the stylesheet.
    That should get you back to the original design.
