Ohhh so I dont need mps.css? the style code from the MPS MOD?

Well no, what you copied from the source code is the full css code.

What you could do to go further would be to grab the css code from the source with the mod activated and then past it in mps.css, and then, deactivate it, and paste the online css code in orange.css this time.
This way, you could keep this :

Code: Select all

<link rel="stylesheet" href="templates/Orange/mps.css" type="text/css">

<!-- BEGIN switch_mps_no_css -->
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="templates/Orange/{T_HEAD_STYLESHEET}" type="text/css">
  <!-- END switch_mps_no_css -->

And be able to switch from one to another. But as said above, you would not be able to change colours from acp any more, but directly in the css files.

I am confuse about you said to put only this:

Code: Select all

<link rel="stylesheet" href="templates/Orange/{T_HEAD_STYLESHEET}" type="text/css">

because in Orange.css dont have all css like you said. This code is missing:

Code: Select all

Well, I think that my site is working fine like that:

Code: Select all

<!-- BEGIN switch_mps_no_css -->
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="templates/Orange/mps.css" type="text/css">
  <!-- END switch_mps_no_css -->

  <link rel="stylesheet" href="templates/Orange/{T_HEAD_STYLESHEET}" type="text/css">

Thank you again

Well what you copied in your orange.css file is the template source code, not the one from the on-line source code, hence your colours problems.

While mentioning the link rel tag, I was always referring to overall_header.tpl, where it belongs.
