Hello.

I would like to ask where and what files (less or css) can we customize for wireframe easysocial theme in order not to be replaced in next easysocial update.

For example, for "body div#fd.es" we want to change the font-family, but not replaced by default with the next easysocial update.
Is there any way of overriding css files?

Thanks in advance
Hello Meagan,

This is actually a pretty old thread and if you are on 2.x, it now comes with a built in template editor which does all these messy jobs for you. All you need to do is to head on to the themes section at the back end of EasySocial, click on the radio button and hit the "Edit template files" button at the top

Upon saving your changes, the system will take care of the overrides for you.

Hi Marios,

Erm, actually all files in EasySocial will get override when updating. You need to create a template override for EasySocial so that EasySocial will not get override by the latest version. You can use this documentation as a guide: http://docs.stackideas.com/administrators/templating/template_overrides . You also can use this as a guide: http://stackideas.com/forums/css-override . If you have anymore questions, please do not hesitate to ask us.

About the button, you can use this css override, and put it in your current Joomla template:

body div#fd.es .btn-es-primary{
background: #000 !important;
border-color: #000 !important;
}


Hope this can help.

Ah, thank you. That makes sense. I just started another thread asking about customization, but I think this answers the question.
