Hey there! πŸ‘‹

We've got just the trick for you! Let's talk about how you can sprinkle a little bit of your own magic on your CRUD Panel design effortlessly with some nifty CSS hooks.

Starting with v6, if you want to change the CRUD Panel styling - colors, border, padding etc then say hello to our trusty friend, the bp-section attribute. We have made sure all CRUD operations have the bp-section attributes in key elements, so you can easily and reliably target them.

Think of them as little tags that you can use to make your customization! Here are few examples which you can find and play around with different parts:

Header Example
/* Customize the page header */
[bp-section=page-header] {
  /* Your styles here */
}

This would target the following section:

And you can do the same for the many sections mentioned below.

List Operation
/* Tweak the main content area */
[bp-section=crud-operation-list] {
  /* Your styles here */
}
Create Operation
/* Adjust the content area for creation */
[bp-section=crud-operation-create] {
  /* Your styles here */
}
Update Operation
/* Customize the update content area */
[bp-section=crud-operation-update] {
  /* Your styles here */
}
Show Operation
/* Customize the show content area */
[bp-section=crud-operation-show] {
  /* Your styles here */
}
Reorder Operation
/* Adjust the content area for reordering */
[bp-section=crud-operation-reorder] {
  /* Your styles here */
}

See how simple it is? With these simple little tags, you can easily give your CRUD panel a personalized touch without breaking a sweat! This approach is a very simple yet effective solution for your custom CSS or JS to target the specific operations precisely, since each operation has its content wrapped around an element with bp-section=crud-operation-xxx.

Happy coding, and may your CRUD panels shine like a star! πŸš€
