Tin_Tin is seeking help to make two styling changes to their Discourse front page: changing the category and latest titles’ color and font size, and changing the navigation container’s background color to a light grey. awesomerobot confirmed that these changes can be made via custom CSS and provided guides for getting started with Discourse themes. Tin_Tin is familiar with Discourse CSS but needs help finding the specific code for these sections and is asking the community for assistance.
Hi! First off, thanks to all of you for making this such a helpful community!
We are currently trying to do two things where I’d appreciate your help:
Change CATEGORY and LATEST titles on the home page to a better readable color and also increase the font size. See below.
Change the BACKGROUND color of the navigation container (only the container) to a light grey like in this example
Could we change the appearance via custom CSS?
And concrete advice would be awesome!
Thanks, Thomas
Yes, you’ll need to add custom CSS in a theme.
We have a couple guides to get you started on themes:
Beginner's guide to using Discourse Themes
Developing Discourse Themes & Theme Components
If you’re not familiar with CSS you can post what you’re trying to accomplish in Marketplace and you’ll likely find someone that can help.
Hi @awesomerobot, many thanks.
I’m familiar with Discourse CSS but couldn’t find the right code for these sections in the two guides you mentioned.
Would you (or someone from the community) be able to help us with the right lines of CSS code for the two sections I have mentioned?
Many thanks! Thomas
