Hey guys,

I'm a beginner to Joomla and T3.

Have downloaded and installed the framework.

Would like to make changes to the CSS but everytime I make changes Compile LESS to CSS overrights my changes.

I have made my own theme folder. Do I copy LESS files into my theme folder to edit CSS or should I be creating a custom.css code.

Really confused what the correct workflow is.

Please help me

Hi Paul,

We would recommend you to use LESS in T3.

If you are not familiar with LESS, then you can use CSS.
Just create a new theme folder then compiless LESS to CSS and you can modify css in your new theme at: /css/themes/[your new theme]

After create css in your theme, please DO NOT click on the compile button anymore. or else, your changes will be overwritten.

And you can use custom.css if you want.

Regards

Hi paul,

when you have made a theme
you will found your own file with variables custom.less and variables.less

you can make changes in the variables.less file

regards
