Afternoon all, (I tried to search this first but I error in DotNetNuke.com when trying to find a thread... so... new post)

  So I want to edit the color scheme of the events module to work with my site scheme. I think I can figure out how to do this but have a couple quick questions.

1) I ASSUME this is possible considering I can edit source files.
2) Do I need to create a new theme folder and a .css files within it, and will DNN see it once added to the file. (will the module recognize it)
3) Not NO to #2 would it be advisable and easier to just edit one of the existing .css files, i.e. "default".

Thank you kindly for any help that you can offer. Thanks.

Hi Michael,

Copy one of the existing themes and call a new name. Note captitalisation and name of the CSS file and the directory must be the same. Also in the css file you will find text such as ThemeDefault. The 'Default' must be the same as teh file name (and capitalisation).

Don't edit one one the existing ones, because it will get overwritten when you next upgrade.

Cheers
Roger
