Hi, I'm currently messing around with the template included with Gantry 2.5.5
I have copied over /components/com_gantry/css/gantry.css and grid-12.css to /templates/rt_gantry_j15/css/gantry.css and grid-12.css
I did not have to add these css files anywhere in the template, Gantry picked them up, I am assuming as an over-ride to core Gantry.
However, the template is loading all 4 css files.
/components/com_gantry/css/gantry.css
/components/com_gantry/css/grid-12.css
/templates/rt_gantry_j15/css/gantry.css
/templates/rt_gantry_j15/css/grid-12.css
This not only has the potential to cause conflicts, but also adds unnecessary CSS to the page.
How do we stop the template from loading both versions? It shouldn't load Gantry core at all, because there is an over-ride.

- the intention is not that you override these 'core' files, rather you modify them by providing 'changes' only in the override files.

Yes but sometimes the overrides don't seem to work !!!
I am trying to add a background image to body but it gets override!!
I want to add this
body {background: #e5e5e5 url(../images/background.jpg); background-repeat:no-repeat; background-position:top center;}

Hi Depika,
Add this at end of template.css file:
body.cssstyle-style4 {background: #e5e5e5 url(../images/background.jpg); background-repeat:no-repeat; background-position:top center;}
It wont be overridden, probably
