    Location of css files solely in use for backoffice rte styling

    Hi,

    Anyone has answers to simple question:

    Can we put our specific css file in any other location then the root /css folder.

    Specific css file is used for rte purposes only, but couldn't get the styles dropdown populated with any styles if css file was not in root /css folder of the website.

    Yes, I'm ware we could use package.manifest css declarations to use custom css files/styles from the backoffice, but this is specific for use in rte.

    Hi Dirk,

    As far as I am aware this is the only location that works. Out of curiosity why would you want another location ?

    Adding backoffice only css stuff shouldn't go there, it should either go in App_Plugins or any other location that is not front end oriented, it's just from a structural point of view where it doesn't make sense to us

    Yeah the prop editor config passes an array of css filenames not the full path so only /css is supported atm

    This is possible in Umbraco 8 by adding the following to your main web.config file

    <appSettings>
        <add key="umbracoCssPath" value="~/path/to/your/styles" />
    </appSettings>
