JA Mesolite comes in three colors, blue, green and red.

I’d like to use the default.css (blue) as an overall color.
But when clicking on the shop link (in the left menu) the green.css should be used.
And the links to some of my sub pages should use the red.css.

Is this possible?

Dear bossej !

As you are requesting heavy customization, I am afraid that you have to handle the changes at your end.
I am sorry for not being of much help in this case.

Yes.

Hainn is correct though… it does require a bit of work and is not really for beginners.

One way you could do it is install the template 3 times giving each one a different name and altering the templateDetails.xml file. Then configure each template to the colour you want. Then you can assign Menu Items to the template you want to use for that item.

Who said I was a beginner… 🙂

Just tell me the code I need to change, and I’m on it… 😀

There is an indirect way to do that. Make a copy of the template folder in your webserver and go to Templates administration from whithin Joomla and then set the color you want and the menu items you like to have this color.
