module css folder in V 1.4

[kungfumunchkin]

I might be a bit slow but what use is the folder named module css in themes?

I'm somewhat familiar with how to edit themes in 1.3 but when I try to edit css in 1.4 for modules nothing change unless I edit them in the global.css file.

What is it that I'm missing?

Are you using a theme that is v1.4 comptaible or are you using your theme from v1.3?

I'm working on a new theme by editing the prestashop theme that comes with v1.4.

bump for my probably stupid question, but I really need to know!

I'm guessing there is no real use for that folder then and you can build the shop like 1.3 with just the global.css file?

Thank you though, you have been to great help in the past and I know this question was kind of newbie

It's not a bad question. I have the same question. I was hoping that by changing the tpl files in the theme, 1.4 would use that file instead of me having to edit some of the core files.

However, I've made some minor changes to one of the tpl files (added a class), but it's not changing anything.

I must be missing something.

Update: here's what it's supposed to be used for, but it doesn't appear to work in 1.4.

It does work as intended, but you have to go under Preferences/Performance and check "Force Compile" to Yes. Just don't forget to change it back.
