Change the admin theme

Post by dragonSA »

How do you change the admin theme?
I have copied the OneEleven theme changed the name, made some changes and uploaded it to the admin/theme directory.
When I login to the admin section it still only shows the OneEleven theme in the drop down box under global settings.
Am I missing a step or 2?


I am using CMS version 2.2.15

At Global Settings in the Admin panel you have to select your new theme.
Each user has the same option to select a theme for his liking.

Hi Rolf it does not show up in the global settings drop down, I had already followed that link before and made the extcss changes, but I want to change an image in a tpl file.

So i copied the entire OneEleven directory renamed it and uploaded it to the admin/themes directory, and it does not show up in the drop down box under global settings, so i cannot select it.

I even renamed the file OneElevenTheme.php inside the them itself to the NewNameTheme.php
