Can't style my menu css,i tried to change in master-ccda(my site www.blobus.on.kg)It helps for 5 minutes than changed back.Please help me to find place where i can change it.
You use a rocketheme/gantry template. Your website has compression/caching enabled for the css. This is enabled either by the template settings or another compression/caching system plugin. Therefore what you get as a final css file, is a dynamically generated compressed css file. Any edits you are doing on this file are getting lost, as soon as the system will generate a new final master.css file.
You need to disable these functions while you are building your website. Doing so will stop the compression of all the css files into one and you will see what rules and from which files your menu and other elements/sections of your website inherit their styles.
In addition keep in mind that it is best to avoid making changes on the core files of your template/extensions.
Gantry templates allow you to create a custom css file where you can put your own css overrides.
The custom css file need to be place inside the css folder of your template and usually needs to have a name of this convention: rt_templatename-custom.css.

I have website which is themable. the website has a theme editor which allows for dynamically change the website font. When the user selects a font, I want the font to be loaded dynamically from a css file.
The website is a static website using next export thus there's no next server in play.
when trying to load global css in runtime from the theme editor component i'm getting
Global CSS cannot be imported from files other than your Custom <App>. Please move all global CSS imports to pages/_app.js.

But i cannot move the global css loading to the custom app file since i want to only load the fonts as needed (otherwise first load sucks).
using css modules doesn't seem like the right path since i need this to be applied globally.
The following SA question is similar, but the resolution there (moving css loading to custom app) is not valid in my case.
Next.js Global CSS cannot be imported from files other than your Custom <App>
What is the best way to achieve this?
I am using Django with Bootstrap 4 in project with my own custom css for design.
Every time when I make new design change in css file I have to clear my browser cache and reload the page to view changes or if I rename the custom css file then my design changes are visible.
Is there any way I can disable caching just for development and I can enable while it is in live environment. I am new to this and Django is huge. Please share what is best practice to do this.
Append ?n={{random_number}} in your template to the css path.
You can write a custom template tag to get a random number like this
The problem is like this:
We're trying to implement a versioning scheme for our CSS and wherever we have accessed CSS through href (like \themes\ssss\abc.css) we append this link with a build number programatically (such as \themes\ssss\abc.css?1011) so that with new build the client gets the latest css files.
The problem is coming in themes. For e.g. under App_Themes we created a theme folder with the name MyTheme; now wherever this theme is used we need the CSS for this theme to be replaced by latest build files. How to do that?
why don't you create a new theme folder on each build/deploy?
Something similar to \themes\ssss-1011\abc.css.
Add some extra hash to your css url ("#somethingnew"). You can also you tools like SquishIt. It also can minify you css/js files.
We have a ASP.NET solution using images, css and .skin files with in the App_Theme/{selected theme}. The themes today contains many, many files and images and for a customer theme we add a new folder to the App_Themes and copy all files to the new folder and make the 10-200 changes on images, skin and css's.
The issue here is that the default theme, the one we normally have when we develop, evolve's and grows making theme customer theme out of date. So when an upgrade comes we have to go through all files looking for changes and hopefully finding them all. Sometimes we miss things that are really important.
The perfect solution would be to have a base theme that contains the base css, skin and images. And when we add a new customer theme we only tell the system what has been changed, what css-selectors to override and what images to use instead of the images from the base theme. In my understanding, if using the normal ASP.NET theme functionality in App_Themes folder, you can only have ONE theme and not a BASE theme and then say a DeliveryCustomer-theme that has a different background and some other images that the solution shall use instead of the ones in the BASE-theme.
Does anyone have some guidelines to solve this in a maintainable way for the future. I seen that people override the App_Theme path to make it work with custom skins.
thanks!
Use the concept of a base theme like you described. Pull out all common CSS rules into another file, let's call it base.css.
Take base.css and all the images that are common, and put them in a folder outside of App_Themes, and just include the CSS file like you normally would any other on your master page.
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/styles/base.css" /> <!-- Note this isn't in app_themes -->
Then, make sure your CSS files in various themes only specify the delta for your styles.
Ok, so here is how I'v done it know.
I have created a Default theme that is the original theme with all the css-files, skin-files and images that is needed, and that is alot. This theme is in the App_Themes folder. Them I'v created a new folder called ThemeSkins next to the App_Themes folder. In this folder I have all the new skins in different folders. The folders name is the name of the new theme that one want's to have. In each of the skin folders there are css-files that contains only the selectors that I want to overload. There is also images that I want to replace.
I have created a ThemeCreator tool that does three things:
Remove all themes except the Default theme in the App_Themes folder. This is to only have one main theme to work on for the developers. There will still be work that needs to be done in the ThemeSkins, but the overall work load will be minimal.
Next the tool looks at the folders that is in ThemeSkins and creates a folder under App_Themes for each skin with its name. Then it copies the Default theme into all the new skin folders that it just created.
The last thing is that it will merge the skin specific files into the newly created skin under App_Themes and let the user know what files were added just for information. The tool adds a prefix, "z_", on all css-files so that these are loaded last of all css-files and there for will overload the default selectors.
The thing that remains is to update the skin-files, so far, no customer has needed changes in these files. But when they do, I guess I just add a skin files and have to update the default in a automatic way since the skin-markers can't be overloaded as css-selectors can.
This works really smooth and gives us a nice and lean way to work with skins on our themes.
Any one got a better idea how to get the same result? the major issue using ASP.NET themes are that you can't use a default theme and then just apply skins to it without using the shape and color attribute in the skin-files. This is not recommended as the skin files will copy out all attribute to all the places that they are needed in the markup and not just reference them as css-classes do.
as you all know, ASP.NET includes each CSS stylesheet in the App_Themes's Theme folder inside the page. No discussion.
But now, I'm facing a little problem having lots of CSS files in a theme and willing to use a static content domain. I would like to load all the static content of my website from the static domain (not only CSS, but also icons, images, etc.), but let's now pay attention only to CSS.
My question is
Is it possible to override the behaviour of Page class, and for each CSS file found in Theme's folder, rewrite the <link> tag with the correct URL of the static content domain? I have nothing preventing me to deploy files into http://static.domain.com/App_Themes/Theme path, so at least adding a prefix to the tag is fine.
Thank you in advance.
Yes, you can. You can have a custom base page class write the CSS files it finds in the folder. Though, I'm not sure you can override the default behavior of the themes feature, so the easiest way is to move the CSS files outside of the default themes. Then, you can use the System.IO objects to read the directory, access the file, and generate the link.
HTH.
An alternate method is to write an http module. Have the module inspect the html being sent back to the client.
If it detects a style sheet reference, change the location that the style sheet is pulling from.
This works for the other items as well, such as images etc.
