Question: CSS for Theme

Dylan Kok

Is there a way which I can have a theme using CSS instead of inputting them into the ACP.

I want to do this to prevent my staff from stealing the site's CSS code.

@EnDylan what makes you think adding the CSS to the theme will make it invisible to your staff?

Dylan Kok

@pichalite I think you misunderstood my question. What I meant is to compile the CSS into a theme and not type it into the ACP. I understand that my staff would still be able to look for the CSS but it would be more difficult for them to do so if it was a theme.

Yes, you can.

Dylan Kok

How to do that?

Hi @EnDylan -- your best bet would be to create a new theme, either by forking one of the existing themes (like Persona!), or creating a new one using a skeleton theme such as https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-theme-quickstart

Okay. Thanks!
