cPanel API 2 Functions - Branding::resolvelocalcss

Warning:

The cPanel API 2 system is deprecated. We strongly recommend that you use UAPI instead of cPanel API 2.


Description

This function returns the path to the account's local.css file.

Note:

cPanel API 2's Branding module only modifies data for the x3 theme. We removed the x3 theme. For more information, read our cPanel Deprecation Plan documentation.


Warning:

We strongly recommend that you use UAPI instead of cPanel API 2. However, no equivalent UAPI function exists.

  • cPanel API 2 calls that use cPanel tags vary in code syntax and in their output.
  • For more information, read our Deprecated cPanel Tag Usage documentation.
