You can apply your own styles to your Quick Shopping Cart storefront using the Advanced CSS feature. Any styles you define are applied to all pages of your storefront.

To gain greater control over your styles and to help reduce or eliminate errors in your CSS code, create it using a CSS editor. You can then paste the CSS code into the Advanced CSS field.

Using the Advanced CSS feature can greatly affect how your storefront displays, so we recommend you become familiar with CSS before attempting to update your storefront in this way. For more information about Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), visit the CSS Tutorial on the W3 Schools Web site. We also recommend thoroughly testing your changes before publishing.

To Apply Advanced CSS to Your Quick Shopping Cart Web Site

  1. Log in to your Account Manager.
  2. In the My Products section, click Quick Shopping Cart.
  3. In the Quick Shopping Cart list, click Open next to the Quick Shopping Cart account you want to use.
  4. From the Storefront menu, select Advanced CSS.
  5. Enter or paste your CSS code into the provided field.
  6. Select Active.
  7. Click Save.

Your CSS is applied immediately in the preview, but is not reflected on your storefront until after you publish.

NOTE: Do not include any XHTML style tags in the CSS field, such as <style type="text/css">. Include only the actual CSS style definitions.
