Getting started

You can customize the style, look & feel of your navigation stuff using CSS. We've included some examples on this page. But first, here's how to get access to the CSS area:

To get started:

  • Open any course and open the Course Settings section

  • Open the CSS sub-section

  • Set the Enable Custom CSS For This Course toggle to ON (green)

  • You should then see the CSS field appear. Add your CSS code to that box alongside any other code you may have already added to it.

Feel free to customize & change the examples below, remove what you don't need, or add in any new rules you want.

Customize the Color of the Search Icon in the Navigation Bar #

Access the CSS area using the instructions above, and then use the following code:
