Use CSS code to customize interface

If Theme Color settings do not fully meet your visual requirements, you can enter your custom Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) code in the CSS Editor area to override the default styling.

Best practices of customizing with CSS Editor

  • Use CSS code to customize the color and font styling. Avoid changing the layouts because this may cause issues during upgrades.
  • When CSS code modifies colors specified in the Theme Color area, it takes overrides the color settings configured in the Theme Color area.
  • The structure and CSS class names used in the system-supplied pages are subject to change in later versions. If you override the default CSS styling with custom CSS code, your custom styling settings may not apply effectively. Therefore, we recommend you reevaluate your CSS code and make any necessary changes after upgrading to a later version.

Example

The following CSS code changes section heading color as follows:

Copy code
.section-title-row {
  background-color:#146693;
}
 
.section-title-row h2{
   color:#fff ;
}
 
.subheader-small, .subheader{
   background-color:#146693 ;
   color:#fff ;
}

Revert back to default

To revert back to the default CSS styling, at the bottom of the CSS Editor area, click Restore to Default. This action clears the code you entered in the CSS Editor area.
