Forum:Customizations in monaco.css have no effect

I created a new wiki for Adom

I want to use the large empty space between the wikia logo and the articles for a banner. I read that you have to edit the MediaWiki:Monaco.css for that.

But no matter what I enter there (even color changes) it has no effect on the site. ctrl+shift+reload doesn't do anything either.

I'm not even sure if I actually use the monaco style ... i just assumed it because I can successfully customize the monaco sidebar. Isn't there some kind of info-page for my wiki ?

 * if your talking about the large empty space right above the article, you dont wnat to put stuff there. there are google ads that are actually shown there. you may have some form of ad/scripting blocking in your browser that is making them not show up.

as for the changes to monaco.css not showing up, that page only controls the "Custom" skin. to see that skin, make sure you have your skin-override checkbox turned ON. go here then check the box that says "Let the admins override my skin choice." that will pick the "Custom" skin as your personal skin choice, which is what Monaco.css actually controls.

hope this helps --Uberfuzzy 12:46, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks ! The preferences page actually helps a lot. ---
