Add Themes

[wilso027]

I am trying to add some of the themes from the website, such as:

http://gallery.zimbra.com/gallery.ph...d&productId=43

but I don't really understand how to install them. Can I just unzip them in the /opt/zimbra/tomcat/webapps/zimbra/skins directory and use zmcontrol to restart. I tried that and I am not having much luck. Thanks

They used to have a thing on themes in the wiki, but I can't seem to find it anymore. Bottom line is, there is 1 more step you are missing, but I can't quite remember it.

Changing logo's themes are a Network Edition Feature only.

The license agreement prohibits changing/removing the logo, and we've had too many non-network edition customers doing it, therefore, it's removed.

For network edition customers, it should be available in the support portal soon, if not already.

I don't want to change the logo, I just want to add a theme. Can you only add themes with the network edition. Thanks for the quick reply I am probably going to upgrade but I want to check it out first. So far so good. While I have you do you have a quick link on how to change from open source edition to network edition. Thanks

Download the NE files, extract it and run the './install.sh' script on your Zimbra server. With the obvious rider of 'make a backup first'.

Does this mean that you're not allowed to change the theme in the Open version at all (even maintaining the proper Zimbra branding)?

You can add themes and add your logo but you musn't remove the Zimbra branding in the OSS version, full details are in the licence.

Understood. But will documentation on creating themes be available via the wiki? It appears that their might be some built-in allowance for banner ads. How does one find out more about how to implement that?

Do we have any updates on this? I am also trying to change themes downloaded from the zimbra themes section. I want to make my own. I understand the license and will oblige. How do I do it?

I also downloaded a theme from the zimbra themes page and cant find anywhere to actually install or deploy the new theme.
