Hi everyone. I never use the vbulletin before, this is my first experience and vBulletin is amazing

. But now I'm having difficulties in modifying the css.

I have 2 questions :

1. I have modified the additional.css in my localhost. Then I upload it to the server. But my modifications are gone. When I open the additional.css, the file is empty. Why is it like that ?

2. I just knew that I have to set up the Forum URL in the admin panel to be the URL where my forum will be located. When I modified the css and layouts in my localhost, the setting was still "http://localhost/forum". Then I uploaded it. All the links were directing to localhost. So I changed the forum URL to be the real URL where the forum is located. But my settings are gone. Only if I set the forum URL to be "http://localhost/forum" (which is the same when I modified the CSS in my localhost), my modification is working. Why is it that way ?

Please help, since I dont want to repeat the modifications again. Thanks so much for the feedback

You should edit the additional.css template instead (go to the adminCP, Styles & Templates > Style Manager, select Edit templates, it's under CSS templates).

I'm not sure I follow this, but maybe it's the same issue as above?

Thanks for the reply. Yes I edited the additional.css template from my admin panel. In my localhost the template has changed as I modified it. But when I uploaded to the server, then I open the additional.css template from my admin panel, it is empty

What do you mean "when uploaded to the server"? What are you uploading to the server exactly?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
