After dealing with T3 for 5 years I hit a wall with the ACM module which I started to use with JA Mono template. I just cant override it.

I created a new theme (just copying an existing one) through Theme Magic and it created ACM, CSS and LESS directories under LOCAL. ACM directory is new to me and it only includes CSS files – no less files.

I used to use my style’s LESS file to customize the whole thing, sometimes also by forcing it through !important modifiers. On this template it just does not work. I could change the primary color etc through variables.less file (@ variables) but nothing else.

I put the following simple css:

.acm-cta .cta-intro { color: #ffffff; }

into 1) to local/less/themes/mytheme/template.less 2) to local/acm/cta/themes/mytheme/style.css 3) to local/acm/cta/style.css

But the text stays gray… Under Chrome "Inspect" the color comes from "body". Where should I change it?

Unfortunately it is on local server, so I cannot share the link 🙁 Here are the versions:

• Joomla! v3.4.8
• JA Mono v1.0.1
• T3 v2.5.2

Hi,

local is temporary folder from our template and it will be auto create new when you change the configuration from your template.

If you want to make an override CSS style on your site, you can use this way and it’ll be not affected when you process to upgrade template and extensions on your site

• Create templates/ja_mono/css/custom.css file and add the CSS style if you wish to custom on that.

Hope it helps

Regards

Thank you for reminding me of that file. I used to use LESS files for a while now and completely forgot about that 🙂

Anyway. It turned out that there is an error in @media queries in my LESS code, which is not catched by the parser. After restarting the server today the error message appeared and everything is fine now. Anybody experiencing the same can try this.

Happy new year to everybody there 🙂
