JTrollerb123 Posted September 8, 2016 Posted September 8, 2016 Hi, I upgraded from v3 to v4 and am trying to customize the colors from the default color skin. The default IPB ACP editor isn't as helpful as I would like .. for example it's not clear in saying which color updates the title bars on the forums, sidebars, etc. In past IPB versions there was a very detailed theme/skin guide which had screenshots and arrows pointing to exactly which sections of the invision product would change based on the values entered, etc. Is there any such guide out there for version 4? Thanks!

JTrollerb123 Posted September 8, 2016 Author Posted September 8, 2016 The only theme I have listed is Default. But I dont see the wand .. just the arrow brackets. How do I get the wand?
Ilya Hoilik Posted September 8, 2016 Posted September 8, 2016 Just create a new theme Quote To create the theme we'll edit, navigate to Customization -> Themes in the AdminCP. Click the Add Theme button. In the popup window, ensure the Easy Mode option is selected (it's the default), and then click Next.

Not a good idea to make changes to the Default IPB Theme ... if something goes wrong then your forum is not usable until problem is fixed whereas if create another theme and make changes to that and if a problem then can always set the IPB Default theme to be theme for members to use while you figure out and solve problem with the other theme
