How to Create a Theme
Creating a theme is easy nowadays:
- Pick a base theme to start with, say, BaseTheme
- Pick a name for the new theme, let's say NameOfYourTheme
- Copy the theme directory:
cd /var/hda/platform/html/public/themes
cp -a BaseTheme NameOfYourTheme
- To change the display name of your theme to match that of the directory, edit
NameOfYourTheme/init.rb
- At this point the theme should be visible and selectable in http://hda/setup?tab=themes
- The most important file in the theme is the CSS file, which contains the styling for the theme. The file is located in
style.css
- The rest of the theme look is determined by the images, which are referenced by the platform code
- The theme screenshot file should be 640x480 and is located in
theme-sshot.png
- The theme thumbnail file should be 64x64 and is located in
theme-thumb.png
- You can change the name of the them, and the color scheme of the piecharts in
init.rb
