Auto Nav Help
Permalink
I am very new to concrete 5 and know the bare basics of php. I want to customize the colors of the auto nav without changing all of the page styles. What I have done is create a new nav template in the root/blocks/autonav/templates/mystyle folder and add a css file to that. The problem is those styles override my entire site css files. How do I change what style the nav pulls in the php? Thank you in advanced for your help?

There is no css in the core auto nav. I am using the breadcrumb template which is pulling in the css info from Typography.css How do I change the nav style so it reads my custom attributes?
You can find out what classes is used (through the developer console) and add them to your own view.css in your tempmlates folder. Just make sure you add !important at the end of your styles.
Or you can add your own classes to the unordered list and apply styles.
I don't have access to any installation at the moment, so I can't give you more info than this. Have a look at this how to for the classes used in the auto-nav and also how to get started on building your own: http://www.concrete5.org/documentation/how-tos/editors/primer-auto-...
ul.nav a {color:red !important; text-decoration:none !important;}

If you have created your own view.php and view.css, then make sure you use unique class names, and you should be able to style it any way you like.
