> [@Stephen](#): > > So if you want to change an existing element in the interface, you can do it with CSS. If you want to add something beyond the cosmetic it’s going to be done via a plugin. As far as I can tell, there is currently no CSS class specific enough to allow me to customize the existing element with CSS. This is why I wanted to add the CSS class to the widget (in vanilla Discourse), so that I could customize the element with just CSS. Is it possible to add an additional CSS class to an existing widget (as described in [my post](https://meta.discourse.org/t/question-suggestion-about-arrow-icon-referencing-replied-to-post/117516/8) above) with a plugin? Can you do so without risking getting out of sync with the default version of the widget and missing future changes/enhancements to the widget? Unfortunately, I’m not the admin of the site I’m trying to customize. While I think I could convince the site admin to add CSS pretty easily (assuming the class is added to the widget obviously), I’m not sure I could get him to use a plugin (especially depending on the risks). (Thanks for bearing with me. 😅) --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/question-suggestion-about-arrow-icon-referencing-replied-to-post/117516)._
