The tutor shows a way to add a style sheet to a WordPress site.<\/h1>\n

There are several ways to add a style sheet to WordPress. Herein, I’ll show how I’ve done so.<\/p>\n

Let’s imagine the div below is meant to be styled from an external style sheet:<\/p>\n

This div should have pink hair!<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Assuming the div above is class=”hair”<\/span>, the following style sheet could be added as \/blog\/styles\/hairstyle.css<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

.hair{
\ndisplay:block;
\nmargin:auto;
\nfont-size:200%;
\ncolor:white;
\nbackground-color:pink;
\ntext-align:center;
\nwidth:50%;
\n}\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Next, the following code, added inside the WordPress Theme Functions file, includes the style sheet as the page is rendered:<\/p>\n

\n

function hairstyle(){
\nwp_register_style(‘hairstyle’,’\/styles\/hairstyle.css’);
\nwp_enqueue_style(‘hairstyle’);
\n}
\nadd_action(‘wp_enqueue_scripts’,’hairstyle’);<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

This method takes concentration to apply. I normally use inline styles, but sometimes an external style sheet makes more sense.<\/p>\n

I’ll be talking more about WordPress in future posts:)<\/p>\n
