Changing colours & Fonts

[markpea]

Dirk,

I really loved the look of the Portfolio communities site which I took to be the default look for the Amelia theme. When I tried it out on a test 1.9.2 version of Mahara, however, the background colour and font were, let us say, rather different. Do you have any thoughts as to which css selectors and files to modify to get a white background and contrasting foreground colour suite ?
Thanks
Mark Pearson

Hi Mark,
the default theme for Portfoliocommunities right now is Spacelab. It has a blue header and is mostly white. Amelia has a red header, a yellow sub-menu and green background. I just updated both to make sure they are the same on github as they are on portfoliocommunites. To change to white background, try the following in static/style/style.css: Search for #108A93 and replace with #ffffff There are several places you need to change to have it all white.
Also, are yo sure you added the folder 'spacelab' to htdocs/js/spacelab ? This is outside of the regular themes folder.
