Hi Hosam! Thanks, i've done what you said and goes better... I found that modify css properties is not very diffucult, but when I want to change the structure of .vm templates is a little bit complicate ande sometimes I cant do all I want... I think I must go in depth of my velocity ability 'cause ... :-SSS

I will try to give u some tips that might help you with the customization. First of all use the toucan skin as its very easy to customize its style. Download firebug http://www.getfirebug.com/ to use it with firefox. Using firebug you can simply using the mouse identify the location of each element in the CSS style file. After this you will need to change in the templates for the pages but I would say start and play around with firebug and try to change the style of the skin. Feel free to ask if u have any further questions. I know its painful in the beginning but its quiet easy after that.

Even because many features/structures are evolving in real time. <br />But what is clear for me is that it is not a good idea to start by <br />modifying the default skin. You will frequently, and easily, achieve <br />results that you will want to conserve/use in your wiki. And it is by no <br />means easy to make an update, which is usually needed to take advantage <br />of new features, and keep track of the changes you have done in the <br />default of base skins. <br /> <br />Perhaps "Modifying a skin" in <br />http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Skins is a bit <br />messy, but it is a perfect starting point. <br /> <br />Please, what have you done and at where are you stuck? I am sure we <br />could find the right way of doing the job and modifying this reference <br />document if needed. <br /> <br />Cheers, <br /> <br />Ricardo <br /> <br />-- <br />Ricardo RodrÃguez <br />Your EPEC Network ICT Team <br /> <br />_______________________________________________ <br />users mailing list <br />[email protected] <br />http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users <br /> -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > _______________________________________________ > users mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users > _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
