- Clarifying Theme Decisions for 7.0, 7.1 and 7.2
- We will not be creating any brand new theme for the 7.0 release, as we do not have time to do so prior to Testathon. However, Steering is interested in creating a "fancy" new DSpace 7 theme in either 7.1 or 7.2, but has not finalized the roadmap for those upcoming releases.
- In 7.0, there will be three theme folders:
- A "base" (or core) theme (which is defined by the core components under
/src/app/
) which defines the core look & feel of DSpace (in terms of HTML layout, header/footer, etc). It only has basic Bootstrap styling (mostly default Bootstrap with minor tweaks for accessibility). This "base" theme is being finalized in https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/pull/1057 by 4Science. - A "custom" theme folder (
/src/themes/custom
) which acts as a template theme for institutions. It provides (empty) templates for changing the theme of individual components. When enabled, it looks identical to the "base" theme, as all template files are empty. This template theme folder was created in https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/pull/1035 and https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/pull/1042 by Atmire. - A "dspace" theme folder (
/src/themes/dspace
) which acts as the default theme for 7.0 only (it's a temporary theme to be replaced in 7.1 or 7.2). Because we are NOT creating a new theme, this folder will ONLY provide basic CSS/image overrides to the "base" theme and will not change HTML in any manner. Essentially, it is just a new color scheme & homepage image on top of the "base" theme. This theme will be based loosely on the old "mantis" theme from 7.0 Preview, but the end result will look like a combination of the new "base" theme and the old "mantis" theme. This is being created work is in early draft form in https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/pull/1063
- A "base" (or core) theme (which is defined by the core components under
- In When a brand new DSpace 7 theme is created (in either 7.1 or 7.2 (based on roadmap decisions from Steering), when a brand new DSpace 7 theme is created, it will replace the contents of the "dspace" theme folder. It may also update aspects of the "base" theme, depending on the scope of the work approved by Steering. No decision has been made on who will create this final DSpace 7 theme, but it has been discussed to hire a designer / firm to do this work.
