My Changes CSS Not Loading?

I want to change the color of the word SEARCH in the search box to darken it up … I went through the following process …


  1. Made Sure Add On My Changes was enabled


  2. Created a my_changes/hooks/index folder structure under store/skins/basic/customer/addons



    3 created a styles.post.tpl file in store/skins/basic/customer/addons/my_changes/hooks/index with the following text …






  3. I determined what style I wanted to ‘overwrite’ by viewing the source …







    It appeared that style cm-hint was setting the color …


  4. created styles.css in store/skins/basic/customer/addons/my_changes with the following text





    .cm-hint {

    color: #494949 !important;

    }



    Anyway, nothing changed so to debug I started by viewing the home page source and while I see many addon style sheets being loaded, I found no reference to the css style sheet for my_changes being loaded.



    I compared my addon file and folder structures to add ons where style sheets were being loaded and it appears I have implemented it the same way and per the documentation instructions.



    Why would my my_changes style sheet not show being loaded in the home page source along with the other addon style sheets that are loading?



    Care to nudge me in the right direction … :) Is there some other settings I need to look at?

Did you clear the cart cache ?



admin.php?cc

So I launched the administrator with the cc parameter … took a sec to load and got to the login screen and I logged in. Then I launched the store and now my custom css is loading and is using my new style for the Search word …



Thanks a bunch!
