I just had my site upgraded to 1.9 and need to make a theme for it without using one of the set themes. I found one through the site that I want to change the colors on but am having trouble uploading it to the website as an option in themes selector

you don't upload it to Moodle in themes selector. You need ftp access to your Moodle and you need to find the directory called theme and upload it into there - and then it should come in theme selector for you to choose.

Right I understand that but since I wasn't the one to upgrade it, moodlerooms did, I don't have the 1.9 dl or folders on our system. Does that make sense? Example, I found where to do it if I were to be doing it in 1.8 but since the 1.9 upgrade wasn't installed here I don't have the folder.

Can you access all the Moodle folders via an ftp program like cuteftp? If you can then you should be able to upload your new theme; if you can't then I suppose you;d have to ask Moodlerooms to do it for you.

B, thanks for your question. I've added it to the Themes FAQ.

Mary, thanks for all your helpful answers. approve Whenever you think you've answered a question more than once, please add it to an FAQ page (see the FAQ index or the FAQ link in each Using Moodle forum introduction).

PS Just moving this discussion to the themes forum...
