Create a New Theme

2) Select the client's organizational unit from the dropdown and click Continue.


3) Click Administration.

 

      4) In the Admin Home, select the Edit Theme radio button, leave the dropdown on Create New, and click Go.


      5) Choose a template from the Template dropdown. For new clients, the template type can be found on the Next Steps Form Received ticket.



6) The Create Base Assets checkbox should remain checked.
7) The folder name for the base template should be base.
8) A description is only needed when completing a theme override.
9) Click Create.

      10) Click Manage Assets.

 

      11) The Edit Theme screen appears. From this screen you can make two major changes: 1) remove/replace images and 2) change theme colors using CSS.
