Hi, 

I have seen some themes that include install. xml to create database tables,  but i try to do that and nothing is created... 

Is it required other config to do it? 


Thanks in advance

Regards

I believe that themes are exempted from install.xml and (upgrade.php) because they can't define their own schema, they can only leverage admin_configsetting API.  Or something like that...

here's the only relevant doc I can find:

https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Adding_theme_upgrade_code

which I believe is now unnecessary, unfortunately I can't find a discussion about it.

thank you very much Danny,
I see my problem...i didn't uninstall the theme previously to reinstall it, so database doesn't create new tables.

I would like to mark thic topis as solved but i can find how to do it!
