Hi everyone,

Firstly, this is my first post - so hi :D

Secondly, I’m releasing a backend theme mod that I made for personal use but thought others might want to pick up. It’s a very basic modification of the theme that ships with 2.1.1, basically just tweaking things like the header/nav a little more to my taste.

I shamelessly copied some of the CSS for the subnav from the Symph 3 beta, hopefully this is OK - if not I’ll take this down. alt text

To install; simply backup your admin.css and overwrite that and the images folder in /symphony/ with supplied files.

Cheers,

Al

Hey alilm, welcome aboard!

Your theme’s looking good! May I suggest you wrapped the whole thing up in an extension? Take a look at the Backend Add Script extension on how to insert custom <link rel="stylesheet" .../> elements in the backend markup.

Also that way we can also congratulate you on your first extension soon. ;-)

Sounds like a good idea, I’ll take a look at doing that! Cheers.

Here’s a sample: http://github.com/tonyarnold/symphony3admin_style

I’ve not run any tests on this extension, and I have no intention of supporting it - if you want to run it, go nuts. It’s more of an example of how to achieve what phoque suggested.

Nice one Tony!

I like the Symphony 3 theme. I’m installing it now!
