missing custom.css file
-
Or, have a blank custom.css file added during installation. Easier for the users just starting out. ;-)

@Mykle1 true… easy peasy… done (in my script…)

What a great idea! ;-)
This is why you are the king! :thumbsup:

FWIW, I wouldn’t put a “blank” custom.css…
I’d put at the top of main.css
/*********************** * Magic Mirror * Main CSS * * Do not edit this file, make changes to custom.css instead. * ***********************/and in custom.css
/*********************** * Magic Mirror * Custom CSS * * Add your custom CSS here, for help, please go to http://forum.magicmirror.builders ***********************/ -
@BKeyport main.css is owned by the project. Submit a pull request to update that.
The comment in custom.css does not add anything in my opinion.

I know that from a beginning user standpoint, having any user files point you to help would ease a lot of people. I’m just thinking of the person who heard of this project and decided to try it out because Pi’s are cheap, and it looked like a challenge (Me!) - I sure the heck didn’t know where I could get help at first, and have learned so much from here.

Sorry for resurrecting this but I think an empty custom.css should be part of the default install. There are errors in the console log when it is missing.
-
@mmmmh if you use the automated installer, it will create an empty file
-
@sdetweil Thanks for the hint. I installed it manually. I guess the assumption is if you know how to clone you also know how to touch. : )
-
@mmmmh well, there is no damage if its not there, so, if you need it, you will create it…
i agree with you it should be there… there are quite a few new users that are following some
guide, and get to the ‘edit custom.css file’ step and its not there and they are lost. and don’t know what to do.
