Theme Manager

Use the Theme Manager portlet to create new themes from templates, edit existing themes, and copy, export, or delete themes with one click.

You can find the Theme Manager by clicking Applications menu > Theme Development in your portal. From Theme Development, you can access two tools: Theme Manager and Theme Analyzer.

Creating new themes

You can quickly create a new theme that is based on a template when you click the Create Theme icon. To create a new theme, you enter a new theme title and an optional theme description. A theme template is selected for you, or you can select another template.
