Hi @Jaypan, I'm not certain of your question. Martex is a sub-theme -> it is based on bootstrap 5.x
I would like to modify martex, and wonder what tools are the best to use to do this quickly and efficiently.
Martex is a Symphony themes product available on themeforest. my website, as it is, can be found at nbnfriends.au
I might consider it, but my problem is bigger than creating a sub-theme from a theme that I already need to alter. Let me explain.
Symphonythemes -> martex has a header row called Top bar that includes three regions for logo, navigation (menu) and navigation other (block containing search and contact us button)
I need to add a region (row) above this Top bar region and I understand that as this is a sub-theme of bootstrap 5.x it can be done, but I don't know how. I looked at bootstrap 5.x and it appears to have many regions not included in Martex -> I suppose that is how theme creators keep there themes simple.
Ultimately, I'm trying to create a header that looks like abcfriends.net.au with two rows and plenty of space for things like social media links, etc.
Can I use asset injector on martex?
thx for the comment @jaypan - I don't know how to create a sub-theme, but I can remember to load a modified local.css after the theme is updated.
I'm still trying to work out why the theme settings page is ignored.
Drupal has so many features that don't work or don't work because themes can be created that appear to use the features but don't; I might start looking for an alternative. I've spent many hours on what should be simple activities, but all that happens is I fall down a rabbit hole.
thank you for the comments.
Someone called redrockslimo posted about one hour ago - but I cannot find the post here to offer thanks. I also searched for redrockslime, but this account appears to be gone?
1. First, ensure the `local.css` file is actually included in your theme’s `.libraries.yml`. Something like:
```yaml
martex.local:
css:
theme:
css/local.css: {}
And don’t forget to attach it via your .info.yml or by including it in the theme's library declarations.
1) After adding your class (like .nfbgblack { background-color: black; }),
make sure you're assigning the class properly in the theme settings —
just add nfbgblack (no dot) in the “CSS class” input box.
2) Clear Drupal cache entirely (use drush cr or Admin > Configuration >
Performance > Clear all caches).
I discovered I had to use classes already defined in the theme, this is not intuitive, and there is no documentation about how to use the theme setting fields.
But onward I go, blundering along the way...
elbarcino, I went to /admin/structure/block, then scrolled down to the Disabled group of blocks and selected the "Place Block" button.
I scrolled down through the list of available blocks until I found the Simplenews subscription block and selected the block.
It is not well documented that this is a way to restore blocks that disappear.
It would be better if drupal listed all available blocks under /admin/structure but this is another Drupal gotcha
I resolved this issue. The block had not appeared on the layouts page, so I added it again.
I appreciate the module, hoping someone will come up with a bounced mail handler that works :)

Please carefully read what I've written. It states that the problem is still in drupal 10.1.5
Yes, I read that it is meant to be fixed in 10.1.3 but the problem did not appear to be fixed.
I can duplicate this issue, so what is the problem with ckeditor 5 still there?
And drupal does not tell the user what version of ckeditor 5 is being used.
The steps were:
1. installed Drupal 10.1.5
2. installed gavias-winnex theme that includes a builder
3. installed cookies - placed the custom block into the footer
If you go to the website mentioned in the steps to reproduce you can select accept all and see the box appear. Possibly this will help identify the problem.

same error. I can only install the v5 of features and then Drupal 10.1.5 reports an error - but at least it installs
