Editing the default theme css file
Hello,
I installed a new copy of elgg and im trying to edit the default theme css. Im basicly trying to make a right to left version of the default theme.
As far as I can tell the css file for the default theme is located under views/default/css.php
The html pages load the _css/css.css file which loads the current theme css file from cache.
The problem is that in the html pages there are some DIV tags such as #index_right and #index_left which are not defined in views/default/css.php they are loaded by _css/css.css into the html pages but I have no idea where they come from or how to edit them.
Any idea where they are defined ? I dont understad the structure of the css files layout of the default theme, _css/css.css combines a few css files, where are they located?
Thanks.

You must log in to post replies.Every plugin has its own css.php file found in:
pluginname/views/default/pluginname/
thanks
when you log in as admin you see settings and administration on the top bar , I want to change the color of the text settings and administration what exact css file should I target? I have looked through and through views/default/css.php and still unable to make the change even after doing upgrade.php. Please help. Thanks.

if you are using default theme then look for the usersettings class. More specifically look for code
#elgg_topbar_container_left a.usersettings {
margin:0 0 0 20px;
color:#999999;
padding:3px;
}
#elgg_topbar_container_left a.usersettings:hover {
color:#eeeeee;
}
in views/default/css.php
I guess that should do the work for you.
