Change CSS value of search-result text ?

nullcx

Hello to everyone. I am currently experiencing issues with modifying some vales in stylesheet.css file of NodeBB. The values I'm trying to modify are

search-result-text{max-height:250px;overflow:hidden;position:relative}

When I change the max-height to something like 900px, overflow:scroll and save the file - after reloading the NodeBB they roll-back to their defaults. What I'm doing wrong?

Here's a screenshots of my "situation"

default settings

how I want to be ?

The style and template files are regenerated every time NodeBB reloads. To change them permanently, you need to either edit the style.less of the theme you are using, or enter your custom css under the Appearance=>Custom HTML and CSS tab in the admin panel.

I recommend using the Custom CSS option for small changes like this, it's easier and doesn't require a reload.

Sadly, I wasn't able to find that option ? Where it should be?

Is this the right file to edit? (I'm using the "persona" theme)

/usr/share/nginx/html/nodebb/node_modules/nodebb-theme-persona/less/style.less

#EDIT

You can mark this as SOLVED !

Edited the custom css worked !!! THANK YOU A LOT !
