I have been doing changes in the custom.css. Now I would like to use all the color themes in different pages on my site. To be able to do that i want to change som colors. Do I only need one Custom.css if I use several themes eg pink, blue? I have compared the template.css in both themes, and all styles have the same name!

Pink


a {
color: #ff6fa2
text-decoration: none;
}


Standard

a {
color: #3498db
text-decoration: none;
}


How do I call on different custom.css, or do I need to change the values in the original css.files?

Thanks!

Unfortunately, the custom.css feature (generally) only works with core template CSS.

For the various color theme CSS that you may want to modify, you will need to work with the CSS files relative to that color theme.

As a rule of thumb, whether you’re using custom.css or not, always run a complete backup of your site prior to any update/upgrade.

Ok, thats to bad! But Is it not possible to copy the entire library “pink” under themes and rename it to “my_pink” and use that one to avoid owerwriting on upgrade. If this is the case, how do I call my new theme “my_pink” and from where?

@antesan: You can create templates/ja_medicare/css/custom.css file and add the custom css style there, this custom css will not be affected when updating template.

Yes, but as I mentioned above – and unless I am mistaken – the custom.css feature (generally) only works with core template CSS.
