Hello,

I've modified the xcillion theme by adding a few additional ascx page files. Now I'd like to make the changes installable on other installations so I'd like to create a new skin/theme zip file. The theme should have a new name since I don't want to overwrite the Xcillion theme that may already be installed. Can anyone tell me the best way to do this?

Best Regards,

Steve

Hi Aderson,

OK, I've tried but haven't been able to create the existing Xcillion skin with a new name.

I can't see my new skin listed in the Themes section under Host > Extensions. The 'skin'  was created by simply copying the Xcillion skin and container directories.

So as it's not listed, I tried 'create package' for the Xcillion skin. I can't see how to rename it. From the list of skins/themes I clicked the edit button for Xcillion, that displays a popup form with the 'create package' button which I also clicked. I then clicked 'Next' to display the list of files to be included and the source directory. I clicked next again to display the manifest (which still contains references to Xcillion obviously), then next again where I could change the name of the manifest and the name of the zip file. I can't see how I can change the name of the Theme anywhere.

I have the feeling I'm missing something rather silly.

Best Regards,

Steve

Hi Aderson,

Thank you for your reply.

I can generate a new package OK. But surely all the references in the manifest are to Xcillion (in my case), the manifest is displayed as part of the 'create package' process and that's what I see.

Best Regards,

Steve
