Hi Hilton, Thanks for sending along that customization link! I think it's gotten me on the right track, as I hadn't seen the /*source <http://wiki.lib.sun.ac.za/index.php/SUNScholar/Install_DSpace/S03>*/dspace-xmlui-mirage2/src/main/webapp/styles/ directory and was attempting to edit in src/dspace/modules/xmlui-mirage2 as suggested on github.
I'm still having Compass issues, though, and perhaps you can help elucidate things. I'm editing the _bootstrap_variables.scss file located at /src/dspace-xmlui-mirage2/src/main/webapp/styles/classic_mirage_color_scheme, and have used the compass watch command in the /dspace/webapps/xmlui/themes/Mirage2 directory, but the edits I make aren't being noticed by Compass, so the css isn't being re-compiled. The config.rb file for Compass, located at /dspace/webapps/xmlui/themes/Mirage2 is set with an http_path of "/themes/boostrap/" and the css and scss directories set to "styles". Perhaps there's some issue with our directory structure, as I notice your suggestions refer to $HOME/webapp and $HOME/source, where we have $HOME/dspace/webapps and $HOME/src/ and no source or src directory within $HOME/dspace. Any thoughts? Thanks again, Adam Adam Strohm Digital Initiatives Librarian Paul V.
