CSS assignment per page or global?

After the addition of some CSS code to a page, then another. Go to site information and the CSS code can be viewed, but as it appears, it looks as if both page CSS files are applied to the entire site, not the page it was input individually.

So what is going on under the covers? Are they just being shown as a whole? Or does the CSS displayed in a global manner without showing what page it applies to?

It appears a bit confusing and it doesn't help being stored in a JSON db locally. Have you done a search on GUI JSON viewers or editors? Those that do exist have some limitation or another rendering it so the structure is shown. It doesn't do much good to load it into a text editor either because we don't even know where it is stashed or the CSS name given to the assignment internally.

Considering data can be shown as a single line (4k long), to someone like myself that had not had to work with them before find them baffling and obtuse due it's format, or rather lack of.

Hi,

Nicepage uses a combination of the linked CSS file and the page embedded CSS. The linked CSS file contains general classes (for Grid, for example), the page embedded CSS contains specific styles for the specific controls (specific Image width/height).

Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Sorry Olivia,

You didn't answer the whole question. I said all of the pages with CSS modifications shown as one when looking at the Project Settings CSS page. There is not a way to determine what page owns what in the event a CSS class is duplicated with differing specs.

So you didn't address the issue of user written CSS, but on images and proportion.

Y'all have added numerous features lately, but still lack compliance with ADA rules here in the US. A blind person is still unable to get full use of any Nicepage site and it is required of all business related websites in the USA. I've lost two government contracts due to it and 1 business account with a number of existing accounts asking about it because I cannot upgrade/update their site with Nicepage and have to fall back to Themler or hand write the page using the HTML block widget.

So I am loosing business while still waiting for this required ALT test object to be added.

Hi,

There are two places where you can add custom css:
Site Settings >> applied to all website
Page Settings >> applied to the page only

It will be helpful to understand exactly what result you want to achieve.

Where is this information available? Not in the documentation that I've reviewed.

All the site and page CSS settings show in the Site settings without any label as to where they apply. In other words, all the custom CSS is shown as single block of code containing both the site and page CSS when viewing the Site settings. There is no demarcation to indicate what is the site CSS vs Page CSS.
