Re: [rt-users] Question about changing the look and feel of RT
Jake, Here's how I've changed the background: I copied /usr/local/rt3/share/html/NoAuth/css/web2/layout.css to /usr/local/rt3/local/html/NoAuth/css/web2/layout.css, commented out background: under body and created a new background entry: background: #8B; Chris elsif j...@elsif.net Sent by: rt-users-boun...@lists.bestpractical.com 11/16/2009 10:59 AM To rt-users@lists.bestpractical.com cc Subject [rt-users] Question about changing the look and feel of RT RT 3.8.5 on FreeBSD-6.2 using Apache 2.2.6 using mason_handler.fcgi I can not figure out how to change the color scheme of RT to be red instead of blue.

[rt-users] Question about changing the look and feel of RT

You should follow the 'cleanly customize' concepts, which means creating
a parallel directory tree under /opt/rt3/local/html (I think. It might be just
/opt/rt3/local) [It's /usr/local/www/rt38 if you use the ports layout.]
Under there create a directory tree like so:
mkdir -p NoAuth/css/web2/images/source
Your replacement background gradient (an 800x2 pixel PNG image) goes into:
NoAuth/css/web2/images/source/background-gradient.png
Then you need to copy the original layout.css from /opt/rt3/html/NoAuth/css/web2
into your new locally modified tree:
NoAuth/css/web2/layout.css
Edit this file to change the background colour to match the bottom end of your
gradient file -- look for this section close to the top of the file and change
as
indicated:
body {
padding:0;
margin:0;
background: #a2a2a2
url(%RT-Config-Get('WebPath')%/NoAuth/css/web2/images/background-gradient.png)
top left repeat-x ;
font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
}
Here I've changed the original blue colour (#547CCC) to a fairly light grey
(#a2a2a2)
Finally you need to copy .../NoAuth/css/web2/images/dhandler unchanged into the
equivalent position in your new local tree. Clear the mason cache and restart
apache. You should now have a customized background gradient.
Cheers,
Matthew

Re: [rt-users] Question about changing the look and feel of RT
I've found web2/layout.css...
background: #547CCC
url(%RT-Config-Get('WebPath')%/NoAuth/css/web2/images/background-gradient.png)
top left repeat-x ;
...that line should be what's making the background blue.
Changing it to #FF doesn't change anything.
Commenting out the line doesn't change anything.
What am I missing here?

Re: [rt-users] Question about changing the look and feel of RT
This works perfectly.
You da man.
Funny, I would've assumed the cache info was removed upon Apache
restart...
Thanks,
