Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

This plugin requires Craft CMS 3.0.0-beta.23 or later.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

To install the plugin, follow these instructions.

1. Open your terminal and go to your Craft project:

    ```
     cd /path/to/project

    ```
2. Then tell Composer to load the plugin:

    ```
     composer require superbig/craft-entry-instructions

    ```
3. In the Control Panel, go to Settings → Plugins and click the “Install” button for Entry Instructions.

Using Entry Instructions
------------------------

[](#using-entry-instructions)

Create a new Entry Instructions field with instructions, and add it to a field layout.

You may add custom per-field CSS in the field settings; any CSS you add will be automatically scoped to the correct field.

Instructions will be parsed with Markdown.

Overriding Global CSS
---------------------

[](#overriding-global-css)

You can override the global CSS by creating a file in your `config/` directory called `entry-instructions.php` and structuring it appropriately. A sample can be found [here (entry-instructions.php.sample)](entry-instructions.php.sample) with the current defaults; copy it and modify or delete as you wish.
