Re: Themes

[Joe C. <jo...@sw...>]

I think all of the documentation remains in Jamies head.  However, after 
quizzing him mercilessly I've managed to make one.  So here's a quick 
rundown--hopefully Jamie will correct if I'm missing something.

Create a directory called "mytheme" in your webmin directory.

Create a file called theme.info in that directory that contains the 
following:

desc=Name of the theme

Create a file called config, with the following:

brand=Company or whatever who made the theme
brand_url=http://your.url.com
cs_header=hex triplet for your chosen header color
cd_link=hex triplet for the link color

All are optional, and there are a few others that can be included...the 
source is probably the place to go for completeness.  (I'll document 
themes in the Webmin Users Guide eventually...)

Now create a complete copy of the directory tree of Webmin, without all 
the files.  Just the base module directories and the images directories 
below those.  Now put your new icons into the various correct locations 
within your new tree, change themse in Webmin and you'll be set.

It's not a non-tedious task, since everything goes into it's own 
directory and you have to go through and make sure you're naming things 
correctly.  Also, it's a damn lot of icons...it took us two weeks of 
constant work to make ours (which will be publically available 
soon...see screenshots on my homepage:
http://www.swelltech.com/pengies/joe -- just zip down to the Webmin 
section to find the links to the images).

Hope this helps.
