the XWiki TeamWe all know that the more aesthetically appealing something is, the more drawn we are to it. This is why an attractive theme that matches and acts as a complement to your brand or the subject of your data is key.
Here, at XWiki, we provide you with a number of great options in terms of look & feel and, recently, have launched five new color themes you can apply on top of the Flamingo Theme Application. These custom color themes were created by our Usability team and are offered for free to XWiki users.
Preview the five color themes below and take advantage of the quick installation guide right after them. We are also curious if you'll be up for the challenge we launch at the end of this article.
Snowdrop - provides a spring-inspired color theme with white and light green.
Mandarin - provides a clean and fresh color theme with orange details.
Cotton Candy - provides a colorful theme with a delicious palette.
Dawn - provides a color theme that uses transparencies on top of a bordo background.
Pantera - provides a dark color theme with yellow details.
Your favorite can be easily installed using the Extension Manager (follow the link for the extended documentation). Here is the brief guide to installing a new color theme:
1. Go to the Administration Panel of your XWiki instance (upper right corner);
2. Select Extensions from the Global Administration: Home menu;
3. Select Extensions (Search for new extensions to add to the wiki) from the Global Administration: Extensions menu;
4. Search for the color theme you like (Cotton Candy, Dawn... );
5. Follow the installation instructions;
6. Go to Global Administration: Themes, select the Look & Feel menu;
7. In the Color Theme tab select the one you just installed and save.
Have fun using them and let us know if you have any feedback.
In a future blog post we'll be talking about how you can create your own color theme, so we are looking for beautiful ones done by you. Let us know if you want to showcase your work and share it with our readers
