Custom CSS

You can modify the css/custom.css to design the site to your own colours.

This stylesheet is loaded at last, which means that you can override any style from there.

Our site template is mainly based on the industry standart Boostrap CSS that is used by many major sites, including Twitter (who created and use it).

One of the main advantage of using Bootstrap is that it is fully responsive by default. This means thats pages will automagically adapt to any browsers page size, including mobiles, tablets and desktop computers.

Therefore, when you design your site, keep in mind to always check your pae, with various page width to be sure it is still nicely displayed on any devices. But if you wish to bypass this functionnalily ala old-school way, you could simply set a fixed 'container width' in your CSS

If you're lazy designing your own CSS, you could start from one of the many bootstrap theme available on the web.

You will find some there:

• https://bootswatch.com/ some free theme
• https://wrapbootstrap.com some commercials themes

BTW be aware that despite we based our template on Bootstrap one and as you wont be able to alter the page HTML layout, we cannot warranty that ANY commercial template will nicely adapt to your site.

To quickly test an external Bootstrap theme, you can simply add this to your custom.css file at top:

/* Import superhero BootStrap Theme EXTERNALLY from MaxCdn */
 @import url("//maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootswatch/3.3.2/superhero/bootstrap.min.css");

If you are happy with an external theme, we strongly suggest you to NEVER rely on a call from an external server (except a well established CDN) because in the case it fails to respond, your site will load slowly and be ugly without this css. You would rather copy the css (and all its dependencies) to a subfolder of your css directory, ie like that:

/* Import superhero BootStrap Theme from a LOCAL superhero_theme sub-directory */
 @import url("superhero_theme/bootstrap.min.css");

The custom.css file can be filled to ovveride any Style defined either by the Bootstrap CSS, either from our own Default stylesheet.

We tried to use mostly Bootstrap block, butons, etc. to comply with any Bootstrap theme. In some case, we also had to add some custom DIV for cases not well covered by Bootstrap.

We've made our best to make each DOM element easely accessible, by using various classes and id, each prefixed by pvw and clearly named. We'he also tagged the body tag with a pvwBody_XXX id that is unique to each page, allowing you to access each page styles individually.

If you ever miss a css declaration to access a specific DOM element, please feel free to contact us, to suggest some new clss definitions.
