    Default Creating new colors/images for categories

    Question -

    I've installed the Smart Backgrounds module and learned how to change out some of the main images in different categories. However, my client wants to change not only the main images, but the background colors of the page as well... in certain categories.

    From my limited experience of zen cart, it wouldn't seem like I'd want to create an entirely new template, but perhaps just a new stylesheet for the colors/images.

    What would be the most logical step you would take in doing this? Would you go the new stylesheet route, or just modify what's already there and add on to the existing one?

    My client does not want to change the location, position, or size of anything. Hoping that makes it easier.

    Check the readme file in the css folder. It tells you how to create a category-specific stylesheet. Note that you only need to put in that new stylesheet the definitions that you want to be different. So in your case, you would just put the background-color definition in it.

    Okay, that makes sense. I'll try it and see what happens. The only thing I don't understand in the readme file is this:

    c_??_??.css // changes to all info pages in a category

    Not sure what the question marks are for? If I want to create a stylesheet for just one category, how would I save the file?

    Thank you for your suggestions... there is quite a bit of good info in that readme file.
