That will create a custom CSS file in the same folder which will be used instead of the default one and that file won't be overwritten when you update/upgrade Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzItZ2VuZXJhbC10YWxrLWFib3V0LWhpa2FzaG9wLzI3NTA2LWNvcnJlY3Qtd2F5LXRvLWFwcGx5LWNzcy1zdHlsaW5nP3RtcGw9bWFya2Rvd24=) or [Create an account](/register) to join the conversation. - **[Pheno](/forum/user/4166-pheno "View Pheno's Profile")** - [![Pheno's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](/forum/user/4166-pheno "View Pheno's Profile") Topic Author - [ Offline](/forum/user/4166-pheno) Less More - Posts: 12 - Thank you received: 0 - - 15 years 2 weeks ago [\#27531](#27531) by [Pheno](/forum/user/4166-pheno "View Pheno's Profile") Replied by *[Pheno](/forum/user/4166-pheno "View Pheno's Profile")* on topic *[Re: Correct way to apply css styling?](/forum/2-general-talk-about-hikashop/27506-correct-way-to-apply-css-styling#27531 "The default styling comes from media/com_hikashop/frontend_default.css.
