Change the Look of a Single Page

Help Center > SimpleSite Help Center > Change the Look of a Single Page

To change the look of a single Web page, you can edit the page's style sheet. A style sheet records information about the colors, fonts, and other display elements of a Web page in one location. Usually, all the Web pages on a Web site share one style sheet, thus giving them a consistent look. For each individual page, you can attach an existing style sheet or create a custom style sheet. With a custom style sheet, you can change the background color of this page or areas on the page, select font size and color for text in specific areas, or change the color of links, to name a few possibilities.

The styles defined here at the page level will override any styles from the template's style sheet. Unless you have specific reasons for this page to look different than the rest of your Web site, we recommend that you make style changes to your Web site's style sheet, rather than making changes to each page. Learn more about editing the style sheet for your Web site.
