    Problems adding external css and js files

    Hello all,

    Very new to Umbraco and not really sure what I am doing wrong. Using the default starter kit (fanoe) I am trying to add the following to the Master Template:

      <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/css/kendo.common.min.css" />
  <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/css/kendo.default.min.css" />

    However, when I test the site I am getting 404s saying:

    HTTP404: NOT FOUND - The server has not found anything matching the requested URI (Uniform Resource Identifier).(XHR)GET - http://localhost:52990/source/web/kendo.common.css

HTTP404: NOT FOUND - The server has not found anything matching the requested URI (Uniform Resource Identifier).(XHR)GET - http://localhost:52990/source/web/kendo.default.css

    I am also getting a script undefined error but I think if I can figure out how/where to put files or what is happening with the paths everything will sort itself out.

    Oddly I am seeing the files in backoffice.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks, Chris

    Hi Chris

    Firstly the link tags show ".min.css" files, but the 404's show the non minified css file. Is this part of the issue ?

    Also the localhost URL looks plain weird - typically it should be http://localhost:52990/css/mycssfile.css

    In terms of your Visual Studio solution have you got the start website and directory set correctly within the project ?

    Cheers, Nigel
