Hey,

i want to create a new site and i face this problem:
I wanted change the bodybackground color or picture so i found the less file style and changed it.. no problem.
But now I wanted to change the bgcolor of header+nav+spotlight+content sidbars... so that eg I will get a blackbackground with a white centerd page...
I tried to add every where background-color:#FFF; for every objekt in the less files but thats not what less was build for i guess. + There was a "container navbar" which i couldnt find and edit with this method as well.
So i searched with firebug for the correct line to change it. I found container when I changed in firebug the bgcolor it worked but I couldnt find the container in one of the less files?
I'm really confuesd?!!

What container are you trying to change?

When you made the change in firebug and it worked, were you changing the css properties on the right or adding inline styles?

I guess i don't understand by container... if it's a module, you can add a class suffix to it and match your LESS styles to that.

Hi philopin,

LESS variables are just a part of common values.

You have use Firebug to inspect, so you need to check for the right class and search for it instead.
As @Mainstwebguy's post, you should not add to inline-style.

Hello again Philopin,

Another option that may work for you is to create a custom css sheet and add your styling there. For example, if you are using the t3_blank template, you'll want to add your file here: <site root>/templates/t3_blank/css/custom.css

t3_will automatically recognize the new custom.css file and use the styles you have defined there. you can read more about doing this here.

Good Luck!

Hey sry i was a little busy....

okay thanks a lot for your anwsers.
The best answer was that i have to search for the classes!!!!!
I was always looking to find the stuff named in the rigth window of firebug ;)
Now i have to search the classes in the less files and add e.g. background: @white;
It works i hope thats the right way to do it.

I also tried to edit it with the custom.css but i could not find it do i have to create my own new one because in the Documentation they say there should already be a custom.css. I was searching here templates/t3_blank/css :(

You need to know that I´m a beginner +german... :D
I also added a Picture of my design so you can see what i want to have...
maybe you have some useful tips for me.
For example i dont get the same spacing between my grids. For example I set position 1 to 3 in the Template menu.. but the margin is not the same...
I added a screenshot..

THANKS A LOT FOR YOUR HELP

Hi philopin,

For custom css, just take a look im that folder.
If you does not see it, just create a new one.

For Margin
You should check for GRID section on \templates\t3_blank\less\variables.less file.
You will find some glue there.

Regards
