Is downloading index from chrome development tools and tweak it a bad idea?
Huh? What did you download, where did you get it, and if you’re replacing the WordPress index.php file, yes, it’s a bad idea.
]]>Hi Steve,
You can access it on chrome by right clicking site and click inspect; then go to Sources and click F5.
I think there is some plugin, so what you edit in index.php from chrome dev tools stays there. This is a safer approach than downloading it right?

To customize the top menu color before you scroll down. To add a shadow for example.
Haven’t found a way to select another color for the “Menu Titles” or to customize them.
How would you go about customizing index.php ? Within chrome dev tools?
]]>To add CSS: use the “Additional CSS” option in the customizer. https://codex.www.ads-software.com/CSS#Custom_CSS_in_WordPress
If you’re editing theme files, then you should be working in a child theme.
]]>Editing core files will break things up; got it!
I am already adding custom CSS. As for editing theme files haven’t worked on a child theme, but will do so!
Thanks Steve!
]]>1. I do not do paid work on any site that’s been mentioned on the forums.
2. If you have a follow up question, ask it here. I do not provide private support for non-clients.
3. Can you be a client? See point 1.
Do you know what’s the problem with the constant popups i get on most sites?
I close them immediately! And sometimes miss the important ones!
I am not trying to be funny. It’s the truth!
Won’t happen again! This forum is too valuable to mess around!
]]>Can tweaking theme related files mess WP? They are isolated right?
Such as: wp-content\themes\onetone\home-sections\section-1.php
Might break updating the theme itself but won’t break WP?
The best is still what you told me right?
– Using “Additional CSS” option in the customizer.
– If editing theme files, working in a child theme.

Yes.
You can break things with a theme file, but switching themes will bring your site back so you can fix it.
