How to change css values?

I want to edit the css. For the component firebug says it is events_css.css.

So I changed e.g. the background colour of some menu items, saved and uploaded it. But after clearing cache and reloading page it has no effect. Firebug says the css data comes out of the file events_css.css?3.4.12.

What does this mean? I how can I edit the css.

Thanks

There are many CSS files that you could change however it is a good policy not to change any files that are included with Joomla extensions (this is because most files will be overwritten when you update the extension). As a general rule, I recommend creating a "custom" CSS file where you can group all the little CSS tweaks that you might want to use to tailor various things to suit your specific needs. I recommend you read What CSS file should I change …?

Hi,

There are two ways to add your custom style for NTS Fancy theme on your site.

1. You can add your CSS rules to the NTS Fancy theme.
- Open the events_css.css file in the "com_jevents/views/fancy/assets/css/" path.
- Add your custom style CSS rules to the bottom of file.
- Save and clear cache of your site if you enable.
- Reload your site.

2. Add the custom code to the Joomla template.
- Open the template.css file in the "/templates/gk_university/css/" path.
- Add your custom style CSS rules to the bottom of file.
- Save and clear cache of your site if you enable.
- Reload your site.

Hope this helps
