Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
DudeThatsErin Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 I am trying to make my navigation look like this website: https://www.aquariumcoop.com/ Now that IP removed the ability to edit CSS files I'm pissed as I feel like I've wasted my money. Anyway, can I still make navigation that has images like this: Also, when you scroll down can I hide the navigation to the left of the logo like this:

Just to note, we have not removed the ability to add custom CSS. We simply removed the ability to edit the core CSS files, you can and should use a custom.css to implement your customizations. This would take a theme customization but is certainly possible to create.

Eventually I will get to a point where I cannot change something because it reads the standard CSS instead of the custom and then even with !important it won't work and I'll be stuck.

I do not want to branch out another CSS discussion on this. I would encourage you to find an example though and we can cross that bridge when you do. You technically should not with custom.css being loaded last and will overwrite what was loaded prior. Afterall, it is Cascading Style Sheets 🙂 .
Randy Calvert Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 You can literally override any style defined by IPS as well as create your own in the custom.css. 🙂Â

Do you have an example? Because I am pretty sure that is not true. And if you need significant modifications, you can also create them as a custom theme (on a developer installation). After all, that’s how people offer themes on the Marketplace. Edited September 21, 2022 by opentype
