Themes in Habari

The default themes in Habari are placed in system/themes/. To make any customizations to a theme, it is often better to create a duplicate copy in user/themes/, and to work from there.

To be able to distinguish between the two versions of a theme in Habari’s theme selector, you need to modify the tag in theme.xml, e.g. with the following changes to themes/k2/theme.xml:

1

9
10
