Hi guys, Just want to confirm my thinking on button colours… Since Pages (or Apps - now) doesn’t support CSS I am assuming that there is no way to change the colour of a button. In Classic apps - you had limited control over button colour using different ‘moods’; or via CSS. Being able to make a button ‘red’ for instance - as a signal for danger is very useful from time to time. In the meantime I have been able to achieve this outcome by simply inserting an image of the button in the colour I want and then attaching an action to it. It achieves the outcome well when viewed on a smartphone - but can be a bit variable on large screen devices as they all seem to render slightly differently and it becomes more obvious that the coloured button isn’t, in fact, a button - but an image with an action attached to it. I am still relatively new to Glide and may be overlooking a simple way to achieve the outcome I am after. Thoughts? Russ ---

Hey! Which pricing plan do you use? If you have the Busines or above you can use CSS in Glide Apps (pages) ---

Hi Petr, Thank you for your super-speedy reply! I have the NFP (Not for Profit Plan) - which I understand is the Business Plan minus Glide support (have to use the Community - which I have always found to be fantastic); and GET ROWS API functionality. I have just checked the specs again for the NFP plan and it is silent on the CSS capability - so perhaps it is not included. Is there a simple piece of CSS I could run - so that I can check myself without having to bother the Glide support people? Thanks in advance, Russ ---

As I know, that should work for non-profit plans. The logic of implementation is a bit different comparing to the classic Glide Apps, but it’s still quite easy ---

Hmmm… thanks for the vid. So it seems that if CSS is included in my Plan I should see the custom CSS box in the Appearance screen witin settings: ![css](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/c/8/c8b96e0000a078e121e080053f0772d8242c3ae5.jpeg) …or does it need to be ‘enabled’ from somewhere?

I don’t believe it’s supported on the NFP. @kyleheney can confirm that. ---

Ah, yes, I think you are right Darren, shame on me I have a non-profit client and we had that plan previously, but I think we changed it to business before I started using CSS there ---

Seems like Kyle confirmed it here. > [@Usage Page Updated, but Limits Don't Make Sense (Non-profit Account)](https://community.glideapps.com/t/usage-page-updated-but-limits-dont-make-sense-non-profit-account/56558/13): > > I’m also noticing that CSS no longer seems to be available for this plan.

Thanks Guys, Kyle is my ‘Glide Expert’ I use on my various projects - he is excellent. I will check with him to see if the NFP plan he uses has CSS enabled. I will be upgrading plans soon anyway - so the problem will solve it self one way or another. Thanks everyone for their help. The Glide “family” is so obliging! Russ ---

You might be able to create a custom HTML button in the Rich Text field and attach an action to it. Should work on any plan. ---

That is a HTML version, with inline styling. It can be used on any plan with the new Glide Apps. ---
