Custom CSS

Our platform was born with high customizability and branding in mind. Custom CSS can make your event website or app truly unique and allow your brand to shine through. "What is CSS?" I hear you ask... From Wikipedia

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a style sheet language used for describing the presentation of a document written in a markup language such as HTML. CSS is a cornerstone technology of the World Wide Web.

Leaning on our Design Team, or having some knowledge of CSS and jumping in yourself, you’ll be able to offer a truly unique and visually appealing event app design that will elevate the value of your event to your guests.

Things we can use CSS snippets for:

Removing My Schedule

Hiding extra features to keep your app simple is one of the best uses of CSS. Here's a snippet which removes the ability for users to add sessions to their own individual "schedule". This is useful when you're using our "Managed Schedules" feature to show a unique 

Note: this snippet removes "My Schedule" from every agenda within your app. If you need it removed from just a single specific agenda, ask the team for help!

Example: Changing the stock wording on an activity feed. Instead of saying "What's on your mind?", this changes the text to say "Selfie Challenge!".

    visibility:hidden;
    font-size:0.01px;
}
cc-activity-feed-submit-post > ion-card > button > div.top-area > div:before {
    visibility:visible!important;

Text Editor Image Sizing

By default, the app ensures that any image added into the WYSIWYG text editor 

The problem here is that we can only have one default.

The two 

/*--------- Info Page Image Auto Sizing ----------*/

    width:auto!important;
}

/*---------- Hide Version Footer ----------*/
.version-footer {

}

Make Embedded Videos Full Width

When embedding videos on the platform in text editors, they are too small by default. This code makes them a good size.

/*---------- Fix Size of iFrames ----------*/
ion-card iframe {
    border:none;
    width:100%;
    height:400px;
}

Make Live Stream Module a Video Library

The Live Stream module is not super useful in its normal form. This code fixes it by turning it into a Video Library which can host on-demand videos - just without an engagement panel etc.

/*---------- Make Live Stream Module a Video Library ----------*/
cc-live-stream-list-page h3,
cc-live-stream-list ion-card ion-card-content,
cc-live-stream-list ion-card ion-card-subtitle,
cc-live-stream-page ion-card-subtitle,
cc-live-stream-page p.stream-idle-message,
cc-live-stream-page cc-pip-button {
    display:none;
}

Hide the Picture in Picture Button

/* Hide PIP Buttons  */
cc-page.cc-session-page-XXXXXX cc-agenda-session-livestream-video button.vjs-picture-in-picture-control,
cc-page.cc-session-page-XXXXXX cc-pip-button
{display:none;}
