Basic Structure of CSS

A CSS rule consists of:
 

selector { property: value; }

• Selector – The element you want to style

• Property – What you want to change

• Value – The new setting

Example 1: Change the Primary Button Color

Use this to align buttons with your brand colors.
 

Note: The selectors used in the following examples are generic, only for reference. Please pick the correct selector from your HappyFox support center.

 

button.primary, .btn-primary
{

  background-color: #4a90e2;
  border-color: #4a90e2;

}
 

What this does:

• Changes the background and border color of primary action buttons.

Example 2: Increase Font Size for Better Readability

Helpful if text feels too small for users.

body { font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.6; }

What this does:

• Improves overall readability across the application.

---

Example 3: Hide an Unused Section or Field

You can visually remove elements that are not relevant to your workflow.

 #secondary-sidebar, .unused-section { display: none; } 

What this does:

• Completely hides the specified section from view.

• The data still exists; it is only hidden visually.

---

Example 4: Highlight Important Status Labels

Use this to draw attention to critical states like “Overdue” or “High Priority”.
 

.status-overdue

{ background-color: #ffe5e5; color: #b00020; font-weight: bold; padding: 4px 8px; border-radius: 4px; }
 

What this does:

• Makes important labels stand out clearly.

---

Example 5: Adjust Spacing Between Form Fields

Useful when forms feel crowded.
 

.form-group { margin-bottom: 16px; }

What this does:

• Adds more vertical space between input fields for a cleaner layout.

Best Practices

• Start small—test one change at a time.

• Avoid using !important unless absolutely necessary.

• Use browser developer tools (Right-click → Inspect) to identify element selectors.

• Custom CSS affects appearance only and may need updates if the UI changes in future releases.
