CSS in Wix Studio

In this video, we try our hand at adding CSS in Wix Studio!

Keep in mind that at the time of making this video, CSS is still in beta.

Adding CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) to a Wix website allows you to customize the design and appearance of your site beyond the default options provided by Wix's built-in tools. While Wix primarily offers a user-friendly visual editor for designing websites, it also provides the ability to inject custom CSS code to achieve more specific styling. Here's how you can add CSS to your Wix website:

Accessing the Wix Editor:

Log in to your Wix account and access the Wix Editor for the website you want to work on.

Navigate to the "Site" Menu:

In the Wix Editor, look for the "Site" menu on the left-hand side of the screen. Click on it to reveal a dropdown menu.

Select "Custom CSS":

Within the "Site" menu, you'll find an option called "Custom CSS." Click on it to open the Custom CSS panel.

Add Your CSS Code:

In the Custom CSS panel, you'll see a text editor where you can input your custom CSS code. Write or paste your CSS rules in this editor.

For example, if you want to change the font color of all headings to red, you can use the following code:

h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {

color: red;

}

h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {

color: red;

}

Preview and Apply Changes:

As you add or modify CSS code, you'll see the changes reflected in the Wix Editor's live preview. This allows you to see how your custom styling affects different elements on your website.

Save Your Changes:

After you're satisfied with the changes you've made using CSS, click the "Done" button or save your progress by clicking the "Save" button at the top-right corner of the Wix Editor.

Publish Your Website:

Don't forget to publish your changes to make them live on your website. Click the "Publish" button to make your customized design visible to visitors.

Remember a few important points when using custom CSS in Wix:

Caution: While CSS customization offers great flexibility, it's important to be careful when making changes. Incorrect CSS code could break your website's design or functionality.

Responsive Design: Ensure that your custom CSS adjustments maintain a responsive design, meaning that they adapt well to various screen sizes and devices.

Backup and Documentation: Keep a backup of your CSS code and document the changes you make for future reference.

Support and Updates: Keep in mind that Wix updates its platform regularly, which might impact the way custom CSS is implemented. Stay updated on Wix's official documentation or community forums.

Adding custom CSS to your Wix website can be a powerful way to create a unique design that suits your branding and preferences. Just remember to test your changes thoroughly and make adjustments as needed.
