Hi Jim,

Are you referring to the the shell commands just below paragraph 2 here?

   
https://docs.bestpractical.com/rt/4.4.1/customizing/styling_rt.html#Designing-Your-Own-Theme

     $ mkdir -p local/static/css/localstyle
     $ cp -R share/static/css/rudder/* local/static/css/localstyle/

If so then then this is also required to get the menus to display:

>>     $ mkdir -p local/html/NoAuth/css/localstyle
>>     $ cp -R share/html/NoAuth/css/rudder/* 
>> local/html/NoAuth/css/localstyle/

If not then I'm not not sure where you mean.

Best Regards

Martin
