    Hello darshan,

    You are not restricted in CSS file usage. You can attach CSS files to themes and master pages. We are planning to implement work with meta tags feature in Sitefinity 3.0 beta 2 and you will have one more opportunity to add CSS files.

    I hope this answers your question. We would be grateful if you send us as much info as possible about your goals.

    Hi Darshan,

    It seems that I had a different idea of what you are looking for. In order to avoid further misunderstandings, I would be grateful if you send as much information as possible about your goals. It would be very helpful if you send us a sample project, too. The more precise you are, the less assumptions we will need to make, the better the likelihood that we will help you right away.

    I will be looking for more details on the issue so that we can help you out. Feel free to open a support thread from your Client.Net Account and send us screenshots of the problem, your CSS files and steps to reproduce the issues.


    All the best,

    Hello Darshan,

    Here is a script you can use. It takes the screen width and according to it creates a <link> element  in the <head> of your page at runtime.

    window.onload = function()
    {
     if(screen.width == '1024')
     {
      var css1024 = document.createElement('link');
      css1024.type='text/css';
      css1024.rel='stylesheet';
      css1024.href='Styles/Styles_1024.css';
      document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(css1024);
     }
     else
     {
      var css800 = document.createElement('link');
      css800.type='text/css';
      css800.rel='stylesheet';
      css800.href='Styles/Styles_800.css';

    All the best,

    Any news on when Beta 2 might be available?  I had planned to look at Beta 1, but I would hold off if 2 is right around the corner.  I've set up a demo machine and I would prefer not to install twice.

    Thanks.

    Hello guys,

    This is just to inform you that the release of beta 2 has been postponed for Monday, November 20th. Unfortunately, we found a couple of design time problems which we did not manage to fix today.

    We are deeply sorry for the delay.

    Best wishes,

    Reminds me of a saying by a wealthy man that I knew...before he was hit by a boat.

    "Always under-promise and over-deliver"

    Looking forward to the Beta 2 as well,

    Hi!

    Is the 3.0 version still a Beta?

    My company is bent on acquiring a license and we are wondering if we should go with 2.7 or wait for the 3.0.

    Please advise,

    Darko

    Hi Darko,

    Sitefinity RC2 edition is planned for the first half of April and the official release is going to be out one or two weeks later.

    I have forwarded your second question to our Sales Dept and they will contact you soon.

    Best wishes,

    Hi.
    Does Sitefinity 3 beta have support for a Multiple domain website?
    Is the full version going to have this support?

    Hi Thabo,
     
    Could you please provide more information about your scenario? Sitefinity has no relation to the multiple domain web sites support and we need this information in order to be able to give you the right solution for your particular case.
