STEP 3: A BASIC EXAMPLE
Let's say you would like to change the colour of your course card background, you can use custom CSS to do this.
This is the standard Pluto LMS visual of a course card without any custom CSS applied:
Perhaps you would like a turquoise card background instead of white as shown above. Let's show you some basic steps to achieve this.

Shortcut when on applicable browser page:
Windows and Linux: Ctrl+Shift+C
MAC: Command+Shift+C
OR right click and then select "Inspect" on your browser page.
Step 3.2: Select the element of interest:

Step 3.3: Enter your custom CSS code into the code editor as shown below:
Note: Additional ID and CLASS references were made in order to isolate the CSS target. In this example, we want to isolate the custom CSS to course cards only and not ALL card across your site. By referencing multiple parent IDs and CLASSES, this can be achieved.
