Hello,
Please could someone set out very simple instructions for installing a theme. I have found Sapphire and the _config.php direction but am unsure as to what to do next.
I would also like very simple instructions as to how to change the header and footer of the theme (include a logo, slogan etc).
My programming knowledge is rather scrappy - I started with binary, back in history when computers filled whole rooms and we used bits of cardboard with holes in them.
thanks

Simply unpack the contents of the zip file into your /themes directory.
Change to theme by putting the following line in your ./mysite/_config.php:
SSViewer::set_theme("themename");Visit your homepage, ensuring you flush the cache (append ?flush=1 to the url).
Yes, thank you.
I have located /mysite/_config.php
edited it with
SSViewer::set_theme("bookstore")
and followed with flushing the cache on my homepage.
The edit does not seem to have been saved.
I suspect I have missed something.
