Dashboard Theme

Permalink
Hi everyone,

I've started to use C5 just last week and so far I love it!

However, I've been trying to create a new template for the Dashboard (not only the Dashboard page per-se, but all of the administration pages) and the Edit Bar on each page.

Anyone out there already tried to do this? If so, how did you did it?

Thanks for your time in advance guys.

There a file theme paths where you can override the default theme. I often do this to make sure the login page uses my own theme and looks more like the customers site and not like the dashboard.
You should be able to find it in your config folder

Something like this should work:
$v = View::getInstance();
$v->setThemeByPath('/dashboard', 'dashboard');


However, I never tried to create my own dashboard theme as I don't really care much about the layout as long as it is easy to use.. But I'm just a dev guy (:

Hi Remo, thanks for your kind reply.

In fact, I'm using the site_theme_paths.php to change the login theme, and I was also able to start tweaking the dashboard theme withouth changing the C5 core, however, I ran out of time, but I'm def revisiting this as soon as I have time.

Thanks,

Ever Daniel
