I love working with Codepen and I'm trying to import a css file from Pastebin.
Here is a link to my external file hosted on Pastebin:
http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=mj9dmzZw
and inside that file I link to my actual font files.
I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Could anyone point me in the right direction or let me know if this is even possible.
Here is the actual codepen. http://codepen.io/ryanjgill/pen/CLitH
Inside the CSS section I have commented out the styling that I'm trying to include with the external CSS file. If you uncomment the styling for the iconfonts, you will see icons in the column 'Type'.
I have tried linking the flie in the settings of the css section that is built into codepen. And using the "#include url('http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=mj9dmzZw')" inside the css.
Well, on CodePen page, there is a small letter 'g' top-right of css input box.
You can import your .css there i think.
If you need some .css extension to your file for importation, just create a new file.css and #import your Pastebin css from within your new file.css

For background, I am trying to load SVG icons in my react app and am using the object tag so that I can manipulate the color of the icons easily.
In this guide, they say:
If you want to use external styles, which are mostly much easier to work with and maintain, you can’t use or background-image. If you are using you need to reference your stylesheet internally from the SVG file (see code following). Remember: if you do this the SVG will also not be able to know what its parent class is (i.e. the ) so don’t try to use that in its styling. Inline SVGs don’t need this added and therefore can be slightly easier to work with in this sense.
and provide this code example:
// Add to very start of SVG file before <svg>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="style.css"?>
// In style.css
.firstb { fill: yellow; }
.secondb { fill: red; }
To give you an idea of how my files are organized, my src folder contains an assets folder along with my components folder. My style.scss file lives within the src folder as well.
I'm having trouble figuring out what to add to the top of my svg files. My understanding of sass is that it would usually compile style.scss to style.css, however, when I look at my sources in dev tools it shows that style.scss is being loaded directly. Is this just because I'm still in development mode?
Anyways, I've tried the following (none of which have worked):
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="./style.scss"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="style.css"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="style.scss"?>
It would be a huge help if anyone knows how I can get this to work! Let me know if there's any other information I can provide. Thanks so much!
You are correct to assume that you'd need to compile style.scss to style.css, so first ensure that only the CSS is being referenced in the SVG. This is the most straightforward way to get this to work, but a better solution would be to import your styles once in your root HTML template instead.
Now, if you're using React it's likely that you're also using a bundler such as webpack. You can tell bundlers like webpack to handle non-JS imports such as Sass files by using loaders. There is a sass-loader for webpack that will allow you to import Sass files, however you may also need to add the svg-inline-loader so that you can import the SVG directly.
I think with both loaders, what will happen is that webpack will start bundling your React app, see that an SVG is imported, grab it and see that it is referencing a Sass file, grab the sass file and compile it, and then output the styles in your index.html file. Please let me know if this solution works for you!
I found a workaround. Not exactly what I was hoping for, but it works for me.
There's a react-svg package that handles an ajax request and pulls the svg in as a normal svg tag. This allows me to edit with my sass file.
https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-svg
edit:
there is below code bottom of style.css:
/*# sourceMappingURL=style.css.map */
also there is a style.css map file.I added its code:

I dont know anything about sass.I have a html file which made sass.I want to change its styles.However when I click the element on chrome, below link seems instead of css file on developer window:
/sass/project-sass/_header.scss : HTTP status code: 404
So, which css file is refered by _header.scss?
I need to change the element.
Also I included all css files but when I include a code snippet from this html file to wordpress, necessary properties doesnt load also there is no _header.scss on chrome developer window.
How can I include the sass stuff on wordpress?
It's difficult to answer your question because you don't provide the architecture of your document and code. However :
_header.scss seems to refer to a "sub" style and it could be look like in the main style :
#import url("_header.scss");
But you can't put a scss file in HTML. You must compile it before and it will result a CSS file for example :
sass _header.scss header.css
and in your HTML :
<link rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/your/header.css">
I have downloaded a simple template from the internet and for icons, the developer used Flaticons font. Now I want to put another icon on the website but I can't get Flaticons code for CSS file. On Flaticon site only can be downloaded in PSD, SVG, BASE 64 I don't have code like .flaticon-research:before { content: "\f100"; }. How to get that? Is there any solution to convert SVG file to get that content or how? I don't want to download every single SVG file and from the SVG file get the icon. I want to use the above example method. Any help will be welcome. Thanks all
follow the instruction here https://www.flaticon.com/iconfonts
after downloading the font you will see multiple files show you how to use your icons depending on you using css or scss
There have been some questions regarding this topic before but I am a bit lost and I would appreciate someone to explain this to me in a different way.
Context: I am using twitter bootstrap in my rails app (without Less, not familiar with Less or what it is but that's a separate issue)
I have been teaching myself CSS and when looking at the application.html.erb file in my rails app it calls certain classes such as "nav-bar" and "container-fluid nav-collapse". I am trying to find the css file where these classes are defined (so that i can customize them) but I cannot find it. So far I have tried the bootstrap_and_overrides.css and application.css.scss files but couldnt find the navbar class. Also I have tried these links: Bootstrap CSS Editing
Editing navbar text color in twitter bootstrap but I wasnt able to have any luck.
You should never directly edit bootstrap css files.
For whatever you need to update as you mentioned use bootstrap_and_overrides.css or your custom.css file for overriding original classes and divs.
The best way to find where the classes are in css file is if you are using firefox, click:
Inspect Element and on the right side you will see the name of .css file where this class is saved.
But when you have class name you can just override this class with your rules. Don't forget to include your custom.css file though.
If you still have troubles finding where particular classes are hiding you can use firebug to track what files are loaded like this:
For each file you have the source where you can see the path and find the elements.
i have a simple but for me rather an important question. I will start a clean Project with Less and wanna include bootstrap. So my basic style.less file would look like this:
// Bootstrap Corefile
#import "bootstrap.less";
// My own Styles
header {
.make-row();
}
is this logical correct because now the bootstrap and my own styles are compressed in one file. In addition I would have a pretty big css file... And what if I want to use another css file from external plugins.
I would like to know if someone has already experience with it?
Yeah that will work. If you want to add another file you can just import that as well.
One thing that you do have to be careful of is that in the earlier version of IE it has a max number of classes it process. I can't remember off the top of my head but I think it is somewhere near 1000. So if the css at the end of the file isnt working in IE thats why.
Here is a line to the documentation to see what you can do with it. Check out the import section.
