Re:Remository CSS - 2010/06/11 10:07
Chrissy's comment is quite correct
I'd add that it is deliberate that the Remository CSS does not affect too many of the styling features of Remository. The aim is that it should allow styling to cascade from the site template so that the Remository display will blend with the site. That seems to me the appropriate policy for an application that will be used within a web site whose styling is mainly determined by the site template.
The Remository CSS has some styling features, but is largely about organizing the structure of the display, while keeping the Remository HTML as close to semantic markup principles as possible.
However, there are plenty of hooks in the Remository HTML that should enable custom styling to be applied.
If you are using Remository 3.53 you can effectively customize by first copying the file ../components/com_remository/remository.css to ../components/com_remository_files/custom.css and then editing the custom.css file.
If Remository finds a custom.css file in that location, it will use it instead of the standard remository.css file. Your customization will therefore be unaffected by the installation of future releases of Remository, provided you do not remove the ../components/com_remository_files directory structure.
