Hi:

I duplicated the Campus template by copying the entire template via Joomla's Admin Panel. See screenshot #1. I'm doing this because I want a section of the site to have a CSS Custom file different than the one used for the homepage.

The procedure is successful in that I can create a second custom file and the pages assigned to the copied template will use this second stylesheet. What doesn't work, however, are the changes I make when customizing the template using the Admin panel. For example, changing the Site Font to Oswald doesn't work. See screenshot #2.

Please help! I might be doing something wrong, or missing something here, but I usually do this successfully using Joomla! templates bought from other sites.

Hello,

You shouldn't have to manually copy the folder like that. You should be able to just click "duplicate" in the template styles area and make another style for it. Try this and if that doesn't work let me know.
