Having now made some changes in mytheme stylesheet.css, I notice they are not effective. i.e. Unless I make the changes in the default template stylesheet.css file they are not in effect.

In keep with the directions on the forum I have not simply copied the default folder to make my own theme, so maybe I missing some files? I do have a copy of stylesheet.css in there, and the rest of the stylesheet folder is there too.

If I disable the default template stylesheet.css file I lose all formatting, so it is using that file.

TIA

In your custom template, look at common/header.tpl

Look at the path information for the stylesheet. Is it correct? My guess is it is using the default path instead of your custom template path.

Running Opencart v3.0.3.2 with multi-stores and the default template from https://www.labeshops.com which has links to all my stores.

In the files you copied to create your custom theme, you should have copied common/header.tpl ?

Edit that file and change the path to point to the 'custom' theme.

This line

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="catalog/view/theme/default/stylesheet/stylesheet.css" />


Change default to your theme name (the folder name in which your theme files live)

Great product!!!

Just a suggestion (even though I believe that holding hands is not a good practice on free products): move the default stylesheets (stylesheet.css, carrousel.css, slideshow.css) to the controller.php where those files are automatically loaded with the chosen theme.
