Theme Manager

Introduction

This option lets an administrator apply a theme, or customized look and feel, to the graphical user interface of LearnFlex and to LearnFlex Mobile.

The theme affects the appearance of the following items in User mode:

·        Picture in the banner

·        Colour of main menu tabs (both text and background)

·        Headings on screens (both text and background)

·        Buttons (both text and background)

·        Highlight colour of sub-menus

This section explains how to add a theme. Any differences when editing a theme will be noted. Also, while you cannot delete a theme, you can make it inactive, which ensures that it cannot be applied to a community.

Important: Creating the actual theme you want to upload may require configuration details from LearnFlex. Contact your LearnFlex representative for details.

Note: After creating or editing a theme, you then need to select this theme for the community whose users will see it when logging in to LearnFlex. See Basic Information for a Community for details.
