Flexi content and website template

Can you have a look in the header (source code) if the css file is actually loaded?
If not you have to include the file in the template!

Hello,
whether a CSS rule is applied is not relevant to FLEXIcontent ...

please make sure,
1. you rule is of higher precedence
e.g. copy a the FC CSS rule

#flexicontent .someclass {...}
and make it:
body #flexicontent .someclass {...}

2. Make sure you have no syntax error

3. Make sure you target HTML Tag is correct
e.g. correct is
#flexicontent .someclass1
and not
#flexicontent .someclass2

-- To examine if your CSS rule is applied or not use firebug or any other similar tool, just take some minutes to watch a firebug tutorial video, online

Hi,
in the source code of the page i don't see flexicontent css (i don't know how it overrides the default template). The website uses a template based on JAT3 so it's not so simple for me to understand it very well.
I put this code (after reading some documentation about it) in the configuration in the admin panel:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layout name="desktop">
<!--Extra css load for this layout-->
<stylesheets>
<file>css/flexicontent.css</file>
</stylesheets>
<blocks name="top" style="xhtml">
<block name="absolute" type="modules" style="raw">absolute</block>
<block name="top-panel" type="modules" style="raw" main-inner="1">top-panel</block>
<block name="header" type="header" main-inner="1"></block>
<block name="mainnav" type="mainnav" main-inner="1"></block>
<block name="cpanel" type="usertools/cpanel"></block>
<block name="topsl" type="spotlight" main-inner="1">user1,user2,user3,user4,user5</block>
</blocks>
<blocks name="middle" colwidth="20">
<block name="left1">left</block>
<block name="right1" style="jarounded">right</block>
</blocks>
<blocks name="bottom" style="xhtml">
<block name="botsl" type="spotlight" main-inner="1">user6,user7,user8,user9,user10</block>
<block name="navhelper" type="navhelper" main-inner="1"></block>
<block name="footer" type="footer"></block>
</blocks>
</layout>

The piece of code i added is in bold.
The file flexicontent.css i added is in the css folder in the template folder (as the instructions suggest).

In the source code of the page(right click on the page->show source code) i don't see the original flexicontent css too. So i can't understand how it works in modifying the webite template, moving text out of its place and changing the content header style.

It can't be an error in html because i have another backup installation with the same content (the only difference is that one has flexicontent installed, as you can see in the images i posted at the beginning of this topic).

I don't know what to do, i've tried in many ways to solve this problem but i didn't find the solution.

If you have any other suggestion i'll try it.
Thanks for your help.

Hello
here are detailed instructions:

Thank you for your feedback but i've already read this article (suggested by Rooney), i followed the instructions but it didn't help me to solve the problem

Hello,
the given CSS file is loaded by FLEXIcontent,
but make sure the file you created has correct path and name, if you do a "view HTML source" in your browser, ... then do you see the file being loaded ?

So
please check the 3 points i made above.


if yes then the rest is just writting correct and appropriate CSS ... also putting your site online and posting a link would help
