Topic: Minifying CSS issue - working on one template not others.

Hi,

I have 5 separate templates that all use different CSS files. After I clear the tmp directory one page will look correct, and then the others try to use THAT css file. This worked fine locally (Windows) but not on an EC2 Ubuntu instance, so I thought it was permissions, but after I changed the permissions to even 777 on everything it didn't fix it either.

Here's the code:
one-step.template.php:

<?php Stylesheet::add('public/themes/microsites/css/one-step.css', 'frontend', 1); ?>
<?php Stylesheet::load(); ?>

index.template.php:

<?php Stylesheet::add('public/themes/microsites/css/index.css', 'frontend', 2); ?>
<?php Stylesheet::load(); ?>

thankyou.template.php:

<?php Stylesheet::add('public/themes/microsites/css/thankyou.css', 'frontend', 3); ?>
<?php Stylesheet::load(); ?>

Re: Minifying CSS issue - working on one template not others.

@kjacoby,

Try to use the templete href like this » 

<link href="<?php echo Site::url(); ?>/public/themes/yourtheme/inc/css/yourcss-1.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="<?php echo Site::url(); ?>/public/themes/yourtheme/inc/css/yourcss-2.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="<?php echo Site::url(); ?>/public/themes/yourtheme/inc/css/yourcss-3.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="<?php echo Site::url(); ?>/public/themes/yourtheme/inc/css/yourcss-4.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="<?php echo Site::url(); ?>/public/themes/yourtheme/inc/css/yourcss-5.css" rel="stylesheet">

Over your page section choose your template for that page. Add your css file in each template, that will fix your problem.

Re: Minifying CSS issue - working on one template not others.

Sure, that works, but then you can't use any CSS variables. It looks like you can't use multiple CSS files unless you want them to be all in one big file. I want separate CSS files for each different template - it's better organization and less to load when the page is requested.

I found a hacky way to do it in Stylesheet.php.

//add this line in front of if ($frontend_regenerate)
$frontend_regenerate = true;

That fixes the issue also! You can use reset css also you know? 

/* reset css styles */
html,body,div,span,object,iframe,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,p,blockquote,pre,abbr,address,cite,code,del,dfn,em,img,ins,kbd,q,samp,small,strong,sub,sup,var,b,i,dl,dt,dd,ol,ul,li,fieldset,form,label,legend,table,caption,tbody,tfoot,thead,tr,th,td,article,aside,canvas,details,figcaption,figure,footer,header,hgroup,menu,nav,section,summary,time,mark,audio,video{margin:0;padding:0;border:0;outline:0;font-size:100%;vertical-align:baseline;background:transparent}body{line-height:1}article,aside,details,figcaption,figure,footer,header,hgroup,menu,nav,section{display:block}nav ul{list-style:none}blockquote,q{quotes:none}blockquote:before,blockquote:after,q:before,q:after{content:none}a{margin:0;padding:0;font-size:100%;vertical-align:baseline;background:transparent}ins{background-color:#ff9;color:#000;text-decoration:none}mark{background-color:#ff9;color:#000;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold}del{text-decoration:line-through}abbr[title],dfn[title]{border-bottom:1px dotted;cursor:help}table{border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:0}hr{display:block;height:1px;border:0;border-top:1px solid #ccc;margin:1em 0;padding:0}input,select{vertical-align:middle}

Or you can use this:

/*! normalize.css v1.0.0 | MIT License | git.io/normalize */
