Comment on Adding a new Jquery UI theme to the default Asp.Net MVC 3 Project by Steve

You’re correct in that the MVC template does not add the base css file for you – you have to add it in yourself. But I covered this in the blog post (see the first code sample).

Then, to use a custom one (say, Redmond) add that to your layout file also, after the core css.

Excellent, thanks! I do see however that the default MVC3 jQuery site created by VS.2010 Ultimate does *not* source the theme/base CSS on the header.

So, if I add a new theme, say “redmond” like yours, should I then add to the standard template both the base UI as well as the customized “redmond” script as follows?:

or remove the “base” theme CSS entry and just use the customized redmond css?

I realize that your post is almost a year old, but I ran into exactly the same issue you did. However, I haven’t seen a reply to your question. Did you ever get an answer? I so, could you please share??

Comment on Asp.Net Bundling, minification and convention by Hao

Glad to see you figured out how to use the replacementList functionality, I wasn’t sure we named that property in a discoverable way.

Also, the files that are ignored by default, come from BundleCollection.IgnoreList which ignores the following by default:

IgnoreList.Ignore(“*.intellisense.js”);
IgnoreList.Ignore(“*-vsdoc.js”);
IgnoreList.Ignore(“*.debug.js”);

You can call IgnoreList.Clear() to reset this and control it yourself.

Hope that helps!
