23.2 Creating a New Theme

The themes/CloudManager folder (and its files) serves as a template for your branding effort. When you want to create a new theme, copy the default and customize it according to your needs. The procedures for customizing your own theme for these components, along with some examples, are included in other sections of this guide. See Section 25.0, Rebranding Reports, Section 26.0, Rebranding Email Messages, and Section 24.0, Rebranding the Application Server Console Interface. We recommend that you do not change anything in the default /CloudManager theme folder, keeping it in pristine condition to copy and customize for new themes. This also allows for upgrading the /CloudManager default theme without affecting any other theme you are using.

Currently, the method used for applying branding to the Cloud Manager Mobile Clients does not use this theming method. For information on rebranding these clients, see Section 27.0, Rebranding the Cloud Marketplace Mobile App.
