I like your templates so far. One thing I think you should change is your menu on dotdiva.com. I think that a text menu looks more professional than a button menu, but that is just my oppinion =).

How do I set style css for template especially menu links ? Does it go at top of index page of template being created?
Creating black blackground template. Set link colours in Dreamweaver, but they are being overidden. TIA

[Cameron Allen]

copy a custom.css from one of the stock template directories. Place a copy called custom.css in your template directory and edit the fields in custom.css.

Thanks for prompt response, will investigate your instructions.

Downloaded custom.css from design in stock template directory.
Altered to requirements.
My template html files are stored in folder /tCustom/
Images for those templates are stored in folder /images/
Uploaded newly created custom.css to folder /tCustom/
Still not working so have I done something incorrectly please? TIA

[Cameron Allen]

First put the whole template(images and the index.html) in one folder. Upload that folder to /sohoadmin/program/modules/site_templates/pages/ . You may have to redo some links in your index.html. Place your .css in the template folder and name it custom.css.

Download the form, it should be in your media directory, edit, then upload. You may have to reset the form on the page.

Thank You.
File to edit for text style of contact page: found at
