Drupal CSS Notes

This is the second installment of thinking Drupal on the XAMPP stack. This entry follows my installation notes. What’s notable today is confined to CSS issues. The big revelation for me is that your custom Drupal theme changes the look and feel of the admin pages as well as the public-facing pages. This is a major departure from the convention established in my mind by WordPress. This means that writing a CSS theme for Drupal might be more involved than WordPress. This default design answers any questions hovering around me about why Drupal has more than one theme/CSS solution. Certainly, this is not the first Blog post about this Drupal “challenge.” I just need to research this further to find detailed historical accounts by those with more Drupal experience.

So far, what’s here is “Overriding drupal.css; two approaches.” This article and especially its comments reveal other CSS workarounds related to the default design of Drupal.
