CSS is not working

[ioancuza]

Hi everybody. I'm new to Zen Cart. I want to say that I love the design. However, I'm having the darndest time trying to get my css stylesheets to apply to the front store. Somehow it works for the admin, but it doesn't work on the front of the store. Here is the store:

I've tried fiddling around, even creating customized css designs, but for some reason the front end does not wish to be stylized.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Happy Thanksgiving!

That is the CSS file being used. If you are going to continue using the 'default' theme then you would edit that file. Otherwise, you need to use the 'Template Overrides' system which is a whole new ballgame.

Much information is available on the overrides system but does take some time to wrap your head around. Use the Tutorials/FAQ link at the top of this page, to learn more -- about the overrides or most anything to do with using Zencart.

And welcome to the Forum.

Rob,

Thanks for replying. I've spent some time looking over the forum and I think I've gotten a good understanding of the template override principle. I've just downloaded another template (sunflower_orange), and followed the instructions to a "T". In my source file it says the following:

href="includes/templates/sunflower_orange/css/stylesheet.css"

T[FONT=Verdana]hat's how it should be, yet the CSS does not seem to want to present itself, if you look again at my site.

I'm befuddled.
