Theming owncloud X

Server
,
1

I have a owncloud installation since 8.x.
In every update I've make the theming with the line

'theme' =>'name_theme',

in config.php
and making a themes/name_theme folder.

Now with 10.0.3 i find a apps/theme-example where are a copy of /core and /appsinfo.
I think this was a 'example' to copy to the themes/ but I've find that now the .css and images must be there (at apps/theme-example) to work the theme.

Anyone knows why this change?
Thanks in advance.

Could be possible that this change was required to be able to publish themes at the marketplace: https://marketplace.owncloud.com/themes

Themes are now being implemented as apps. But there is supposed to be a compatibility layer to support still the old way.

Thanks!
One more question.
How I make the own theme?
Do you know if I need make the folder theme at the apps folder?

Please have a look at our docs

Thanks!!
The new way is quite different.
Now themes are apps and may activate like that.
A great help.

did you use both scripts with the right parameters?

12

I created both scripts and called only the theme-bootstrap.sh as instructed.

13

I would try doing it manually according to the documentation.
