There are times when it would be very useful to be able to use custom CSS for a blog post.
Under the blog's Dashboard-> Appearance-> Stack Exchange Options, I see a CSS Folder
option. Does that mean that the administrators can add CSS?
If so, how can we access that folder?
If not, is there a way we can work things out so that this is possible?
Some use cases for this:
- We want to add some global styling that isn't part of the theme (think podcast player, App Store links, etc.)
- We want to do a one-off thing for a particular post that's more complex than the theme offers (think two side-by-side images, some huge text, or something colorful).
- We need to put a quick bug fix or patch in place so that we can get a post out (this would just be temporary until SE can deploy a fix).
Update:
I've tested and found that I can include some inline styles (<span style="color: green;">hello world</span>
works).
But, it appears that this styling is subject to a whitelist (overflow-x: scroll;
is stripped).
Inline styles, of course, also don't allow us to make our own classes to reuse (think stuff we do a lot, like podcast guests' photos, a potential inline audio player, etc).
