Hi guys,

I want to get system.css of EpiServer. I searched some topic and I found this

Html.CssLink(EPiServer.Web.PageExtensions.ThemeUtility.GetCssThemeUrl(Page, "system.css"))

But this code cannot work on MVC with razor engine and here is its error

'System.Web.Mvc.HtmlHelper

Could you help me how to get system.css in MVC Razor?

Thank in advance,

It seems lacking a @using to the namespace contains the extensions: EPiServer.Framework.Web.Mvc.Html

Hi GP, I've already using EPiServer.Framework.Web.Mvc.Html in my code. The problem is method GetCssThemeUrl required object Page, but Page variable I can only get from WebPageBase which have data type is dynamic. I tried to parse it to Page but I didn't know how. <pre class="brush:csharp;auto-links:false;toolbar:false" contenteditable="false">public class ThemeUtility { ... public static string GetImageThemeUrl(Page page, string imagePath); ... }</pre> <pre class="brush:html;auto-links:false;toolbar:false" contenteditable="false">public abstract class WebPageBase : WebPageRenderingBase { ... public override dynamic Page { get; } ... }</pre> <img src="http://s13.postimg.org/xbeqv0lc7/abc.png" width="890" alt="" height="349" />

Hi,

Did you tried to use: @Html.ShellCssLink("system.css")

or calling this as static method: @CssExtensions.ShellCssLink(Html, "system.css") ?

Hi,

Thank for reply, your code have no error but it generated path"/EPiServer/Shell/8.0.0.0/system.css" which is not found. Existed system.css I want to get is "/App_Themes/Default/Styles/system.css"

I just used plain HTML tags for system.css (and ToolButton.css). Since they are under App_Themes they are not dependent on the version number, so should (hopefully) be OK after upgrading to new versions.

So I have

<link href="/App_Themes/Default/Styles/system.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<link href="/App_Themes/Default/Styles/ToolButton.css" rel="stylesheet" />


Works for me in CMS 9.2.0.0

Happy to hear if there's a better solution for this.
