When you activate the theme, that default CSS gets added into Admin area > Appearance > Customize > CSS > Existing CSS Styles (read only) block. You can add your custom CSS to the **Edit CSS** form. So when user opens your site the system loads the default CSS first, then it checks whether you have any custom CSS and if you do it takes your custom styles instead of default ones. You should add only your custom CSS into **Edit CSS** block. Don't copy the whole Existing CSS Styles and add them to the Edit CSS area. Only the styles you want to change or redefine should be placed to the Edit CSS area. For example, to remove the Quick Search widget from the Turquoise theme, add the following style to Admin area > Appearance > Customize > CSS > Edit CSS: .index_qs_widget { display: none; } Click the **Save** button. {{:overview:admin_area_manual:appearance_5.png?500|}} To reset CSS to original, remove the styles you added to the **Edit CSS** form. |**Note:** All CSS changes should be applied via Admin area only. You should not apply them to the files on the server. Otherwise all your code customizations and CSS changes will be lost after the software update.| === Graphics === This section allows you to upload the images to the site for the advertisement banners, custom pages, special pages etc. If you want to add a logo to the Morning Sign in page, you should do the following. 1.
