Editing CSS Files
Cascading Style Sheet (.css) les control how the wiki looks. By editing these CSS les,
you can easily change display attributes for specic page elements. For example, you
can change:
Color Â
Background color Â
Margin Â
Padding Â
Font size Â
If you’re skilled at editing CSS les, you can completely overhaul the look of the wiki by
changing its layout, removing unwanted visual elements, and adding your own visual
elements.
When you edit a CSS le, your changes occur immediately; you don’t have to restart
the server or web service after editing. Because you might disrupt users by changing
CSS les, you should create, edit, and test them with a theme that isn’t currently in use.
There are many online sources of information about Cascading Style Sheets. These
