[Documentation] Editing css of plugins in Vanilla

Caio

I was wondering the protocol for editing the css in plugins in Vanilla, do you edit it directly or through your theme?

422

I add a caveat to custom css file , like this.

< !-- the css below changes voting plugin -- >

Then add the css changes, use !important attribute where needed

it's a matter of preference... but doing it in the theme gives you the ability to upgrade the plugin without losing the css changes... however, making the changes to the plugin css file allows your changes to propagate across themes. (you just need to be more careful at upgrade)

You could use

@import

and whack them in a separate css file too.

Thank you for helping me. I decided to edit the plugin directly.
