Hi,

I just updated my application’s ionic libs today. There is no more ‘custom1’, ‘custom2’ colors in the scss files.

Is there an easy way to get them back please ?

So I wouldn’t recommend overriding any of Ionic’s scss files since they will be updated any time you update the version.

You should create your own Sass file or override them before the import of Ionic’s. I recommend watching this video: [http://learn.ionicframework.com/videos/sass/#](http://learn.ionicframework.com/videos/sass/#)

Hi,

I don’t want to override ionic lib scss files ! I would like to use **$custom1 : #333** in my ionic.app.scss in order to have my full custom color without changing originals one.
