Wikia - creating communities
|
Any logged in user can customize the design of the site through their personal stylesheet subpages. This allows you to view your own choice of fonts, colors, positions of links in the margins, and many other things.
To customize how site looks for you, create and edit User:user_name/style.css, where user_name is your user name, and style is the site style set in your preferences. You can also use Special:Mypage/style.css to reach the same page.
By default, style may be one of:
- monaco
- monobook
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is used to style and format content on Wikia. The syntax of CSS is beyond the scope of this document. For most people, however, copying and pasting code is sufficient.
Once you have edited your stylesheet, you need to reload it to your browser. On most browsers, press Ctrl+Shift+R, or hold down the Alt key and press the Refresh button.
