Overview
VIVO uses Freemarker templates to create its web pages. These templates can be modified to alter VIVO's appearance. Most VIVO sites alter VIVO's default appearance. VIVO has a "Site Info" capability that allows a few presentation elements to be modified from the Site Admin menu. Modifying other elements involves creating a theme and modifying that theme. Here we describe simple modifications that most sites want to make before they go into production. For a detailed description of theming and templates, see Creating a custom theme
