Change colour of a specific category?

[steve_c]

Hi I want to add a category called "Clearance" to my store. I would like the font colour of this category to be red (so it stands out in the category list on the left). Any ideas on how I would accomplish this?

 

Many thanks in advance!

I was thinking about it, and, as far as I can tell, Prestashop doesn't give each category a unique CSS selector ID so you can't really actively select one and tell the browser to render it differently.

 

The only thing I can think of (without bashing the database to pieces) is maybe using one of those HTML block modules (Link Block module might work otherwise a free html block module) and setting below the rest of the categories.

 

I think you can hide the clearance category then if you wish - but I would say that you should consider making Clearance into a promotion

Hi thanks for the reply - what do you mean by "making the clearance a promotion"?

Thanks

Hi,

 

Essentially an advert\promotion for all the things that are on clearance. A bit like Amazon:

 

 

That 10% off fashion is a promo but I'm sure they could have easily put a "Clearance Items" image there instead. Hope that makes sense.
