Is it possible for me to create a CSS page file to use it as reference somewhere in the forum?

There's an option to do that for HTML pages on Advanced > Modules > HTML & JAVASCRIPT > HTML pages management, so I was wondering if there's something like that for CSS under the admin panel too, but I can't seem to find it, thought of asking just to confirm.

Hi you can find your CSS stylesheet via ACP >> Display >> Pictures & Colors >> Colors & CSS

Not understanding what you mean by "use it as a reference."

By reference I mean for use later not immediately applied, if you create a HTML page from there the page won't show everywhere you go, it's just a page you can redirect users to visit it like it is an 'external resource', plus ACP >> Display >> Pictures & Colors >> Colors & CSS has limit on size

By these references for later time use, are they for the forum or html pages?

But to answer your question, no there isn't a similar option for what you're describing. Either you use external CSS for the HTML pages by adding a link to it in the

<head>

section of each HTML page:

Code:: <head> <link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css"> </head>

The file must not contain any HTML code, and must be saved with a .css extension.

Both, I'm not a HTML/CSS expert but if I used the HTML tool to create a HTML page and create a style with the <style> tag, can I import the style from that HTML page into somewhere else and reference sort of like this you did on head?

Code:: <link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css">

No you can't do it that way. You would simply place the css as the internal style sheet.

Sigh. I was hoping I could avoid to keep calling CSS from another websites and instead just save it locally on the forum, does Forumotion has a solution for uploading CSS files like it does with images (servimg)?

Coucou @okamii

you can instead just add this directly inside the

Code:: <head></head>

section like this:

Code:: <style> //your CSS code </style>

Otherwise no, you can't create a separate CSS dedicated page I am afraid :rose:
