link styles in style.css and base.css

juchuuli / 2012-06-10 19:12:13   

Hello.
I have two questions. (Second thread..)

I switched base and style.css to 777, because I wanted to change the link definitions (just styles, no positions)
I already had it yesterday, then suddenly after some repairing by pernin, which was great (thank you) I wanted to try to get back to the styles I already wrote. I changed base and style in FTP to 777. And wrote in ndxzstudio But now somehow style.css gets empty in ndxzstudio and sectiontitlebar looks totally undesigned. I'm always able to fix it by uploading the original style.css, but I would like to stay with my ideas and don't know how.
What did I do wrong?

Thank you for the great forum! I would be definitely lost without it.

where are you editing? in admin > assets or with an editor through ftp? Did you try editing css without changing permissions from 644 to 777?

no first I changed to 777. (I'm not that confused ;))
then tried to edit in admin>dateien (should be assets) in ndxzstudio
I cannot write in the safari css files.
can I?

Do I have to change back to 644?

some installations need changing permissions to the files for editing. Other don't. Try editing with style and base css at 644. Make one visible change and test

but you ment writing in ndxzstudio, right?

pernin / 2012-06-10 20:01:46   

in admin> dateien yes

cannot write with 644 in admin

OK. you can have the files at 644 and edit them offline: download the file with ftp to your computer, edit it with a plain text editor or a code editor, save changes and reupload it

The other alternative, is using the indexhibit style plugin. It's much simpler for making basic changes but maybe they are enough for your needs

OK I'll try by downloading. Otherwise it's okay like it is now.
For a while.
;)
Thank you!
