Hi i'm very new to CMSMS and ive got it all installed and running perfectly fine.
HOWEVER,
I've been experimenting with the style sheets and templates, but i cannot get a style sheet to get assigned to a template.
just to make sure i've backed up the existing templates and i've deleted them from the admin, and i've created a basic template and a basic style sheet.
once i've assigned the two and made them active through the admin and i view the page, all i get are the page title, content defaults etc, but no styling, even when {stylesheet} tag's has been included within the template.
any idea's why this is happening??
ASSIGNING CSS TO A TEMPLATE
Re: ASSIGNING CSS TO A TEMPLATE
Is the stylesheet attached to the template, If you press the "CSS" button on the right of the templatename in "Layout -> Templates".
If you check the source of the page opened, do you see a reference to a stylesheet at the position where you put {stylesheet} and you did out {stylesheet} within the head-section.

hi ronny,
i've checked all of that, and everything is correctly assigned and the css is active for the template.

ive kept it very basic, as all i want to see is at least one element of my template affected by the css, something i've not been able to do since installing CMSMS

Re: ASSIGNING CSS TO A TEMPLATE
Ok it seems like that the extrenal css file just doesnt want to work.
therefore i'm using the {literal} tag to include the .css within the tempalte file. and guess what..
it works perfectly.
