I have a simple question.
I made an override template called nomenu2
I created a css page in /templates/rt_anacron/css/ and called it nomenu2-custom.css
I made some obvious changes to verify it was in use first.
I dont see those changes in the browser.
I dont see the new csss file in inspect an element it only shows the original custom override page in this path templates/rt_homescholar/css/ called rt_homescholar-custom.css
Site link is in secure tab
Did I name it wrong or put it in the wrong folder?

Adding custom css files doesnt work like that.
The name of the css file is based on the name of the template folder + "-custom".
It is not based on the name of the gantry override.
I suggest to use the page-suffix-feature of Gantry and to add those taylored css-rules to your custom css file that already works.

Thanks I understand now.
So you cant just start making new template overrides and then matching them to a custom css file in the same folder.
Ok so I want to modify this css for my menu item
#rt-logo {
display: block;
margin: 5px -92px 0px;
}
Your stating I should add a suffix like "mymenu" in the menu item under the "page display" tab in the field named "Page class"
Then change the css in my /templates/rt_anacron/css/ folder for my file rt_anacron-custom.css to this?
.mymenu #rt-logo {
display: block;
margin: 5px -92px 0px;
}

- Enable the page-suffix-feature for that in Gantry 4. Add a page class and inspect the body of the rendered html code to find the right name of the class.

- I am having some trouble with a template RT_XENON running on gantry 5. Can you guide me on what I need to do? What you are talking about is Gantry 4 and things seem to have changed.

@Daniel ... in Gantry 5 you have much more choices to add custom css/js files (or even inline css).
I suggest to add css files via "atoms".
Read up the docs here:
