January 24, 2014 at 5:29 pm #194052I’ve been trying to manipulate the CSS. From reading posts I’ve noted that you can create the file ‘custom.css’ under templates/mixmaz/css, which I did but my changes don’t seem to apply. I’ve also tried manipulating template.css in that same folder, but the changes aren’t applied. Caching is not turned on for my site. I have made no changes since installing the quickstart.
I suspect it might have something to do with the version of the JA Extension manager. When I go to the JA Extension Manager under ‘Components’ I see the list of extensions but when I click on them I get an error like the following:
/Users/dylanglockler/Sites/rebellebytootsies.dev/jaextmanager_data/j16/template
Error
Path is not a folder or this folder was deleted.The folder ‘jaextmanager_data’ in my site root is empty.
Again, this is coming straight off a fresh Mixmaz Quickstart install where the site appears correctly, like the demo.

January 24, 2014 at 5:41 pm #519735I’m simply trying to edit the CSS to change the logo and I’m sure there will be other minor adjustments I’d like to make.
The link you sent returned 404 Not Found.

January 24, 2014 at 5:57 pm #519738Now the link works, thanks. Although that’s exactly what I tried after finding the same solution on the forums. However, the css file does not load. Unfortunately my server is running on a local network and not available outside at the moment.
The rendered document header is below, note the empty stylesheet link, I suspect that should be the custom.css which I currently have in ‘/templates/ja_mixmaz/css/custom.css’ :

January 24, 2014 at 6:35 pm #519743Without being able to look at your specific site, it is difficult to offer up specific recommendation(s). :((
Although, the tool I would be using to do so is FIREBUG . . . which you can try using yourself to play around with the CSS until you find the correct solution.

January 24, 2014 at 6:37 pm #519745Perfhaps there is some other caching (not main Joomla caching which I have turned OFF)?
I’m changing the content with CustomHTML modules and the content on the page is not changing. I have checked that I’m connected to the correct database. I changed the images loading in the JA Slideshow Lite in the user1 position but changes to the Custom HTML modules in user2 do not change in the site…?

Very new to JAT3 and Joomlart. I didn’t realize there was a separate cache, which I just discovered and cleared. Is there a way to disable the JAT3 cache while developing?
I’m still not able to get the custom.css file to load. If I can’t get it perhaps I’ll sync the site to my public development server so you can have a look. There is no reference to the custom.css in the header. I am now able to edit the template.css and see the changes, though I would prefer to work in a custom.css.

January 24, 2014 at 7:08 pm #519749I found the Cache settings under the Joomla Template, T3 Options (not where I expected to find them). I’m starting to get to know where things are. Most components or plugins have such settings under Global Configuration or accessed through Options under the Component.
I think that solves my issues!
