Manual talk:Interface/Stylesheets

Which version introduced this feature? I don't see it in 1.6

Seems not to work with 1.11.0
Hello, i recently found this function and i want my wiki to behave the way that depending on the namespace the background is different. I saw this in MediaWiki:Common.css, but when i add this to my Common.css nothing changes. by the way: any changes made in my Common.css or Common.js does not seem to have an effect. Can anyone help me please? Thanks, --TurboKanne 12:50, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Broken CSS links
Common.css and skinname.css (e.g. Vector.css) don’t seem to exist. Common.css was moved to Gadget-site.css without redirect, so I changed that link, but where is the default CSS for the skins located? And do the User: stylesheets still work? —Frungi (talk) 07:58, 25 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Common.css was moved on mediawiki.org because Extension:Gadgets was installed, so users can disable the load of the now old Common.css on their preferences disabling the "Gadget-site", for testing purposes for example. But this stylesheet is still being loaded --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) 14:35, 9 June 2013 (UTC)

MediaWiki:Skinname.css only works for Vector.css
I am using WikiMedia 1.24.1. If I change "MediaWiki/Vector.css" to /** Hide sidebar **/ div#mw-panel { display: none; }  left: 0em; } div#content, div#footer { margin-left: 0em; } this works and the left navigation sidebar collapses. It does not work with cologneblue.css or modern.css or my custom skin. Off course I always purge the cache. In Localsettings.php I did declare: $wgUseSiteCss = true; Help would be much appreciated--Gogtl (talk) 12:51, 12 December 2015 (UTC).
 * 1) left-navigation {
 * 1) mw-head-base,


 * Other skins may have different IDs for sidebar. Have you checked that the ID is correct on those skins? --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) 16:23, 12 December 2015 (UTC)
