Hey guys I have created a plugin with an accompanying Stylesheet which I am adding to the page via

class SitemaphtmlPlugin extends BasePlugin
{

function init(){

     craft()->templates->includeCssResource('sitemaphtml/css/sitemaphtml.css');
}

however the link being generated is prefixing the path with cpresources/ making it 404.

/cpresources/sitemaphtml/css/sitemaphtml.css?x=xXhFyszUs 

how can i overcome this this?

Cheers

  • Are you trying to get the CSS file to load in the control panel or on the front-end of a site?

Is your css file located in the /resources/ folder of your plugin? So your path should be something like:

<plugin folder>/resources/css/sitemaphtml.css

I've tried it myself and whilst you do get the /cpresources/ part of the Url in your markup, the CSS file is loaded on the front end.

EDIT: If you take a look in the docs, it says the following:

By default, Craft will search for the resource file in its own craft/app/resources/ folder. If it can’t find the file there, it will check if the first segment of the resource path is set to a plugin handle. If it is, Craft will look for the resource file within that plugin’s resources/ folder.
