I recommend creating a new CSS file in the folder called "override.css" and calling this within the template. Keep a copy of this file. Override the CSS styling by setting the values that are already set in the default CSS template files and/or add new rules.

Another way to do this is to edit the Joomla Template file to show the Kunena edited css! What do you think of this idea.
I use an edited version of the Joomla default template Beez_20 that I have renamed so that it doesn't get over written when Joomla is updated. Would it be possible to do the same with a Kunena Template?

On the other hand, if you are clever (meaning you know a lot of Joomla trickery) you can do as coder4life suggested and get all "hi-tech". I don't have the patience for hi-tech. I just like to get the job done as effectively and easily as I possibly can. It's your choice: 5 minutes the quick and dirty way or an hour or so if you want "elegant".

I have read the FAQ article. I have already made changes to the "kunena.default-min.css" file! Had no trouble identifying the elements I needed to edit but am lost at the point where the FAQ reads "you should make those changes to your Joomla site template" I can't find any fuller explanation as to the procedure to accomplish that. Is there some other doc I can read up please?
EDIT:
Please forget the above. With a little thought and a smattering of logic I have sorted this for myself. I have created my own "5 minutes the quick and dirty". :woohoo: :woohoo:
Just did as you said. Added my own CSS rules to, in this case the "personal.css" file in my Joomla template and success.
Thank you!x2

Or re-install Kunena 2.0.0 or (when it is available) upgrade to K 2.0.1 and this file will be overwritten, anyway!mitchell65 wrote: OK Didn't realise that it was a big mistake. I will use my backup to set this file back to the original.

It occurs to me that many users want to introduce their own color sheme into Kunena and if they are like me and struggle a bit to find the correct element title to a particular item is there a list of elements available. if not would it be an idea for us users to create one? Perhaps with screenshots showing the actual items referred to? Just a thought. I would be prepared to contribute to a list as I am in the process of doing just that for myself at the moment
