Indexhibit Support

Hi,

I have zero experience when it comes to HTML.

I would like to know where/how I would do simple things such as change the colour of the titles in my index (down the left) and change the fonts on the website?

I have read through a lot of questions, but I cannot figure out, where I would stick the HTML in the admin section of the website? Do I need to be careful? will I ruin it if I mess it up?

I am up for playing about with size/colour/font of text in both the index and exhibit, but do not know where to begin!

thank you
Will

You would edit the CSS via /ndxzsite/default/style.css and in some cases base.css.

If you back up the files you can do whatever you want - you won't ruin things.

If you use something like Coda (which is not free but has a trial option) it might be quite easy and even fun for you.

A little html/css knowledge goes a long way...

Hello and welcome!

Yes you will ruin it and mess it up! And that's the fun of it - that you can play with things... Trial and error.
Of course you need to be careful with a few things but playing is recommended.

If you want simple customizations you need a code editor (there are free ones - just search the web) and an ftp application like the one you used to upload your indexhibit files and folders.

The file that you will be editing to change the looks (and some functionality of things) is style.css
style.css is located in the ndxzstudio>default folder.
Once you edit it, you reupload/replace it with what's on your server.

In this case you'll need to edit the #index ul li css selector.
If that does not exist you can add it yourself with the code editor.

thank you for the response. I will have a play.

How do I back it up?

I have kept the original files that I downloaded at the beginning - will that be ok?

Yep - just keep the original files intact & work with copies
