How to style admin pages

[jwalz]

Good Morning, Everyone,

The admin pages for the various apps in LibApps, e.g., LibGuides, LibAnswers, LibCal, are styled slightly differently. For example, the font size of the admin pages in LibGuides is much smaller than it is on the admin pages of the other LibApps. I tried adding CSS for the LibGuides admin pages to the CSS for the public LibGuides pages but it didn't have any effect. Was I using the wrong CSS selector(s) or is there a special way to apply CSS to admin pages? 

Thanks!

Nathan,

You might want to be careful trying to change the CSS of the fonts in the ADMIN view.   You mostly don't have access to it, but also you can break significant portions of it if you are not careful.   

I do think I understand what you mean though.  About the font types / sizes in the different ADMIN interfaces.

All that I do is to change my browser.  That works best.   Then it makes them larger or smaller only on my machine to suit myself.     in Chrome, I just hit the <CTRL> + to make it all bigger so my tired eyes can see it better.

Meanwhile, the different ADMIN views are controlled by Springshare and you can post a message on the Lounge to let them know what you would like to see.  They are very responsive.   (plus some of the interfaces are currently undergoing mods and all of them will be changing soon)

I hope that helps some!
