Custom styles and javascript

  1. Create custom.css or custom.js file inside active argento theme skin folder.

    For example:

    skin/frontend/argento/argento/css/custom.css
    skin/frontend/argento/mall/css/custom.css
    

    OR

    skin/frontend/argento/argento/js/custom.js
    skin/frontend/argento/mall/js/custom.js
    
  2. Add css/js code to the new file and save it
  3. Flush Magento cache

Custom layout update file

This feature is available since Argento 1.5.2.

Argento will automatically include custom.xml file from active theme layout directory. All you need is just to create custom.xml file and include your changes to it.

For example:

app/design/frontend/argento/argento/layout/custom.xml
app/design/frontend/argento/mall/layout/custom.xml

Example of file contents:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<layout version="0.1.0">
    <default>
        <remove name="left.newsletter"/>
    </default>
</layout>
