Install and open the plugin

Install the Custom CSS plugin via our customer center. After installation, open Administration -> Plugins and click the settings button to reach the CSS editor.

The plugin handles uploaded CSS safely and keeps the interface responsive while still letting you reshape every element.

Drop CSS without tags

Paste pure CSS into the Custom CSS field. HTML tags like <style> are not required-just enter the selectors and declarations.

You can even import remote stylesheets via @import url(...) when you prefer editing locally.

Replace the logo

Here is how you replace the logo in the A1 Theme with your own image.

#header > h1 {
  background: url(https://cdn.saas-secure.com/images/star-on-big.png) no-repeat 10px 8px;
  padding-left: 40px;
}

Inject external CSS

Need complex layouts? Import remote stylesheets and keep your code in the editor only when necessary.

@import url('https://storage.googleapis.com/code.getmdl.io/1.3.0/material.indigo-blue.min.css')
                            
Custom CSS applied

Beware sneaky scripts

CSS fields can accept scripts when wrapped in <script>. Use the plugin responsibly and avoid pasting third-party code unless you trust the source.

#header > h1 {
    background: url(https://cdn.saas-secure.com/images/star-on-big.png);
    padding-left: 40px;
}
</style>

<script type="text/javascript">
    alert('hello world');
</script>
<style type="text/css">
                            

Style with confidence

Once you understand the syntax, any CSS you enter will be applied instantly across Redmine, letting you align headers, buttons, and layouts with your corporate branding.
