Question CSS Rules Being Overridden

We have, on many occasions, tried to explain that the Example template (that is included with the Kunena installation package) is not a template that works. It's a "template" for template developers to build a Kunena template. It's unfortunate that the instructions to guide people with the process of building a custom template are not very well written.

Therefore let's focus on the problems that you may be having with the Blue Eagle (default) template.

I looked at your site. I don't understand the problems that you seem to be having with the top menu. Would you like to provide us with a screenshot that demonstrates the issue?

We will do our best to help you even though, as I've already written, the process of developing a custom template is a little tricky especially considering the lack of a comprehensive guide for template developers.

Thank you for taking the time to help with this. So I switched back to Blue Eagle as my default and modified the css. This worked for some items, but not all. It seems that directly modifying the css of items that can be controlled by the backend color chooser does not work. So I used the aforementioned chooser to modify what I could, which is the majority of what I need to do.

It all worked with the exception of the "Inactive tab font color" and the red color on hover of links that I wanted to change to orange did not work either with a direct css modification.

The template options are added into main HTML from initialize.php inside your template. Try removing those options you don't want to use.

Thank you, I will take a look at it.

Well, I have had success changing everything I wanted with the exception of the following three items:

Tab font, tab font color, and changing the red (ff0000) font color to my desired orange color. I have modified these across multiple files, but still no luck.

If I remember right - that's a dangerous thing to be writing before 07:00 - there are options to those things using the Kunena Template Manager; at least, if your template is based on the Blue Eagle template, these things are easy to change.

For some reason, the font colors are not taking effect either when edited directly or in the Template Manager, which is odd since the other edits done there are working.

Also, there is no option for font-family in the template manager.
