Do we not have the ability to add class and id selectors to custom HTML and then target them in CSS?

Recommended Posts

I'm just trying to style some custom HTML lists for a course catalog page and the class selector doesn't target as it would under any other circumstance. I found a forum post from 2014 requesting this capability, I had hoped that because it was from 5 years ago, they may have implemented that ability. Basically, I am just trying to target these specific lists, leaving the rest on the site as they are. Any advice?

Thanks!

No, you can’t add classes or IDs using the standard version, but you can target specific classes on certain pages using collection and item IDs or classes.

I have been trying to add a class to my Google Social Link so that I can update the icon. Squarespace uses a generic URL icon for Google link for some reason??

I have been able to select the links using querySelectorAll but it wont let me add a class to the elements. The console says .addClass and .classList.add are not functions. 

Did you ever find a solution?

Did you use jQuery? 

Have you declared jQuery library yet?

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.4.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
