Overview
To improve the load time of Customer Self Service web pages, you can use the application to minimise the style sheet (CSS) files at run time.
This uses Razor technology.
Step-by-step guide
To Bundle and Minify CSS Files:
- Login as an administrator
- Navigate to 'Content' --> 'Template Editor'.
- Click to open the 'Code Editor'.
- Include web optimisation and Bundler into the razor template
- Create a new "cv Style Bundle"
- Include your styles into the bundle
- Create and load your bundle
@using System.Web.Optimization;
@using Bundler;
@{
var cvStyles = new cvStyleBundle("~/TemplateBundles/CVStyles");
}
... Other HTML here
@{
cvStyles.Include("~/documents/css/print/pmain.css");
cvStyles.Include("~/documents/css/print/pbutton.css");
cvStyles.Include("~/documents/css/print/preset.css");
// or you can use
cvStyles.Include( new string [] {
"~/documents/css/handheld/hbuttons.css",
"~/documents/css/handheld/hreset.css",
"~/documents/css/handheld/hmain.css"
});
}
... Other HTML here
@{
BundleTable.Bundles.Add(cvStyles);
@Raw(@Model.TemplateUtil.StyleRender("~/TemplateBundles/CVStyles"))
// If you want to attach additional tags you can use
@Raw(@Model.TemplateUtil.StyleRender("~/TemplateBundles/CVStyles","Media:Print;Id:test;SomeTag:SomeValue"))
}
To enable this functionality, the template needs to be a version 4 (Razor) template.
