I believe I have found the color controls. They are in: /var/www/koha/opac/htdocs/opac-tmpl/css/en/includes/opac.css listed as follows: /* bleu : #3366CC; jaune-vert : CCFF00; vert : 99cc00 jaune : ffff99 orange : ffdd75 gris clair : efefef bleu profond : 000066 jaune vert 2 : d3dfad th : ccffcc violet : 993366 */ If you go to this website: http://www.2createawebsite.com/build/hex-colors.html There's a color wheel halfway down where you can put in a hex code and see the resulting color. I believe violet : 993366 is the one you find objectionable. So, I think all you need to do is find the hex number for the color you want instead and plug it in wherever you find 993366. Although I can do this for you, it would be good for you to learn how. First, you need to connect to Koha via SSH (Secure SHell) so you can Get and Put files. The easiest way to do this is with the program Fugu. Download it from http://rsug.itd.umich.edu/software/fugu/download.html You will need to be "inside" the central office firewall, either by being at one of the schools or by VPN. When you start it up, connect to koha.u47.k12.me.us (172.17.237.4) with username "root" and enter the password when prompted. Now you'll have two windows side-by-side, your computer on the left and koha on the right. On the right, use the pull-down menu to go to the root directory (/), then double-click to drill down to /var/www/koha/opac/htdocs/opac-tmpl/css/en/includes/ On the left, get the directory to someplace convenient on your machine (e.g. "Desktop") Then just drag "opac.css" from right-to-left to get a copy of it. Before you do anything else, make a copy of the original somewhere so if you screw up you can always put the original back and start over! Now, the next bit is VERY IMPORTANT. Open TextEdit, go to Preferences, choose NewDocumnet->Format->"Plain Text", then in OpenAndSave select: "Delete the automatic backup file" "Save Files as Read & Write" "Overwrite read-only files" "Ignore rich-text in HTML" "Ignore rich-text in RTF" OpeningFiles->"Automatic" SavingFiles->"Automatic" DocumentType->"HTML 4.01 Strict" Styling->"Embedded CSS" Encoding->"Unicode UTF-8" "Preserve White Space" Once you have those prefs saved, you can File->Open "opac.css". It is ver important you edit these files in TextEdit as they need to preserve their unix characteristics. Opening and saving in any other word processor will add a bunch of junk that will result in the file no longer working correctly. The colors listed at the top are just comments (inside the /* ... */), so changing something there will not do anything. However, if you know your new color code you can simply use Edit->Find, put "993366" into Find, your new color code into Replace, and click "Replace All". Save your changes, then back at fugu drag from left to right to put the new changes in place. As soon as the new file is written, you should be able to refresh your browser and see your changes. Good luck, and have fun decorating!
