CSS - A different way of doing things?

[WeAreNine]

Just starting to get my teeth into theme design for Prestashop. Noticed that the CSS is brought in, and there are loads of CSS files to deal with. I'm a front-end developer, and have never seen so many CSS files for a project!

 

They're brought in using this:

 

{if isset($css_files)}
{foreach from=$css_files key=css_uri item=media}
<link href="{$css_uri}" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="{$media}" />
{/foreach}
{/if}

 

But wondered if I could just reference 2/3 files, and cut this out, is it used for anything else?

 

Thanks!

Hi,

That is used to add any queued css to the store, so that every assigned css file for every module is added. Of course, if your theme is for your personal use only, you can go ahead and remove that, and only include your main global or anythingelse .css file with all the styles you need

 

Cheers!
