Thanks.
Replied by mitchell65 on topic Editing color scheme via CSS files.
I am now all sorted and am happy that my edits will not be aver written on future upgrades. However, I go back to your post above, Sozzled, and whilst I do not doubt the wisdom of that advice it does beg the question, why the Kunena Developers actively encourage the direct editing of the CSS files in so far as a button to "Edit CSS" is included in the toolbar of the Kunena Template Manager window? Interested to hear your thoughts on that and anyone elses thoughts for that matter.sozzled wrote:
Never ever directly edit this file! No ifs, buts or maybes.mitchell65 wrote: I have already made changes to the "kunena.default-min.css" file!
Thanks.

My thoughts are that there is no active encouragement by the Kunena developers or anyone associated with the Kunena project.
People have several choices:
(1) Change directly the minified Kunena CSS files (and make sure you do not make any mistakes ... but find that all your hard work is undone when you upgrade to the next version of Kunena);
(2) Build their own Kunena templates (and all of the "fun" that entails) and possibly wear the likelihood of the need to modify the template files if/when the structure of Kunena changes in future versions;
(3) Use someone else's Kunena templates ... and hope that they continue work in future versions of Kunena;
(4) Edit the non-minified Kunena CSS files, minify them and then do it all over again when you upgrade Kunena;
(5) If you did anything in (1), (2), (3) or (4) above and you have problems, then you have to remember that you're on your own; or
(6) Modify your site template CSS and you will probably never have to worry again ... until you change your site template.
So ... those are my thoughts. I don't see "active encouragement" of direct editing the Kunena CSS files; the edit feature on the Kunena template manager is not "active encouragement" because the edit feature is not officially supported. Use it or not use it at your own risk. What other people do or say is for them to do or say; it's not for me.
