Hi, I found the code to remove the red asterisk. However, I am totally struggling in finding the "custom css". Is it possible that not everyone has the right to edit this in a template? And is there any other way I can display this in my template?
I have found a place where css is and where "inherit" is currently displayed. But I am warned to change something there. If I insert the code to remove the red asterisk there now, then probably the general css setting will not be there anymore, right?

I would be so grateful for any help because I really don't know how to find this custom css. Could I change it in the source code of the question? I tried but it didn't work so far.

Thank you!

Did you extend the theme?

Hi tpartner, I think this is my problem. I don't know how to extend a theme and I don't have a theme editor. I've been searching the forum, the manual and google for hours, but I can't find an answer on how to extend a theme and get the theme editor. The buttons, as they are shown in the manual, do not exist for me. I have the version 3.23.6+200929

You will need to get permissions to edit themes.

- www.limesurvey.org/manual/New_Template_System_in_LS3.x

So if I have no permission there is no way to edit custom css? That is too bad... could I at least edit some css within the question?

Is there any way to remove the red asterisk within the question source code without the need to access any custom css? Please help me with that

If XSS is disab
<script>
$(function() {
$("question{QID} .asterisk").remove();
});
</script>


But : if you don't have access to custom.css, maybe XSS is enable

There are good reason to disable edition custom.css by any user.
With allowing updating custom.css : you can add any picture and any color on website, for example the logo of your concurrent . I think if your admin disallow css update : it disallow script.

Thank you. Unfortunately it is not working. Do I need to declare that it is javascript or something? Like:

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">

$(document).on('ready pjax:scriptcomplete',function(){
.asterisk{display:none}

});
</script>

Thank you again!

Denis provided JavaScript, you have given an example of CSS so it needs to be wrapped in a <style> tag.


Having said that, as Denis suggests, if your system admin has disallowed access to the themes, they have probably enabled the XSS filter so inserting CSS may also be prevented.

...also, Denis has a small typo...
