Primary: [Advanced Layout]
Secondary: None

This may seem silly, or I may be looking in the incorrect spot for the answers that I am looking for. I have built webpages, and worked with CSS before, rather easily. For some reason both the uploading process and design for the general Layout and Menu layout are eluding me. I generate what is on there right now, and save them and it isn't code at all. I create a CSS sheet and upload it to seemingly no change. Can someone point in the direction of a general help guide that might explain the process in a bit more depth?

Thanks.

Under Admin > Layout >Advanced Layout Options you should be right clicking the link on the Current Layout File and Current Menu File and clicking save as. This should save the HTML files to your desktop or where ever for editing.

Most of the System commands are defined at the bottom of the page and can be used in the layout.html file.

For CSS you have to upload it under Admin > General Settings > Administrative File Uploader once you have edited it.

You also have to remember to change some lines in your layout.html to use the new css file or else it won't do anything. The bold portion will have to point to the location of the file you uploaded to the Administrative File Uploader as the default CSS file does not live there for your site.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.php" type="text/css"/>
