General Notes
- Only modify files that are absolutely necessary, specifically PHP / HTML. It is strongly
encouraged that all modifications be done via CSS as extensively customizing the PHP /HTML files could cause unexpected results due to regular updates provided by Center
Stage Software. - Person modifying Webtix should have a basic understanding of the following:
- PHP & HTML
- Javascript/jQuery
- CSS
Customization Instructions
- Note: The following files are not to be modified without specific direction from Center
Stage Software. Doing so may result in unintended behavior of Webtix.- _includes/config.php
- Index.php
- .htaccess
- A custom home directory has been provided that includes any Webtix installations as
well as access to the core Webtix application. The core Webtix application is located in a directory called ‘Webtix’ and is read only. - To make custom changes, the following provisions must be made:
- The filename cannot be changed. The only time this is acceptable is when testing
a change and want to compare versions.- For example:
- A custom file has been added called main.css.
- The filename cannot be changed. The only time this is acceptable is when testing
- To compare against the original, renaming it to _main.css is acceptable.
- Deleting files from the custom directory is acceptable. Doing so will revert that
particular file back to the core version of the Webtix installation.
- Deleting files from the custom directory is acceptable. Doing so will revert that
- Example Customization

- Navigate to webtix/css/custom/{page_header.css | page_footer.css}
- Copy the files from the above directory to the site’s _media/css/custom directory
