How to Modify Indexhibit w/CSS







Sample of the pdf document : 




This tutorial will show you how to modify your Indexhibit website by creating a new
theme and making some simple changes to the CSS. We will focus on three major
areas:

   1. How to create the files necessary for your own Indexhibit theme
   2. Using Firebug to examine web pages
   3. Styling your theme by modifying an existing CSS stylesheet

Step 1: Creating a new theme:

We will begin by guiding you through the process of creating, uploading and activating your new theme. The theme we will create will be based on the ‘Sample’ theme included with your Indexhibit download, and will be based solely on modifying the style.css file (i.e., you need not worry about messing with the index.php file).

First, you need to locate the Indexhibit themes folder on your computer. Locate the
themes folder by following:


User > Sites > ʻyoursitefolderʼ > indexhibit > ndxz-studio > site > sample

The ‘site’ folder is basically where Indexhibit stores the files for all of its themes. In our
example, the new theme we create will start off as a copy of the ‘sample’.

Next, create a new folder inside of the ‘site’ folder and give it a name (e.g., “theme_01”).

Once you’ve created this new folder open the ‘sample’ folder and copy and paste the
style.css, ie.css and index.php files into “theme_01.” Again, we will only be working with
the style.css file, so don’t worry about the other two, they only need to be in that same
folder in order for the theme to work.....
