    • hi again,

      when you edit any of the css files, then only use the ones located under
      ../templates/rt_gantry_j15/css/..

      if you edit any of the gantry core css files under
      ../components/com_gantry/css/..
      then you will loose your changes whenever you perform a gantry update.

    • Thanks Kat,

      if i change something with Firebug i see only changes if i do it in the "html" category.
      Is this embedded css code? How do i copy the changes from the Firebug editor to the right Stylesheet and what is the right Stylesheet? Is it the
      cssstyle-style3 ?
      Thanks a lot for your help.

    • Firebug is just a debugging tool. On the right-hand side of the Firebug window, you'll see a reference to the stylesheet that you're working with. If you mouse over the title of the stylesheet, it will show you the location of that stylesheet. I've attached a screenshot with the area that I'm describing circled.

      In my case have to make the changes under the gantry.css which is in the components folder.
      how can i add these changes to the ../templates/rt_gantry_j15/css/.. ?

    • And how can i install the gantry framework to a local Joomla copy? If i use the installer for the framework he says "Folder can`t be moved".

    • The way that CSS works, if any style declarations override previous style declarations, only the most recent declaration is used. For example, if I had a stylesheet that had the following code in it:
      .wrapper {margin:10px;}
      .wrapper {margin:0;}
      The wrapper class would have a margin of 0, since that was the last declaration to be read by the rendering engine. So, in your case, if you want to override the functionality of the gantry.css file, you can just add the appropriate style declarations to any of the CSS files that are loaded after gantry.css.

      The second issue you're having sounds like a permission problem. Make sure that the user or group that your webserver is running as has the necessary permissions to make changes inside your base path and recursively throughout all of the enclosed directories.
