Customize Portal Theme 7.2 Community

Hey,
Yesterday I tried to edit the portal color from my Bonita installation within the Studio environnement.

I edited files in BonitaBPMCommunity-7.2.3\workspace\default\bonita_home\client\tenants\1\work\theme\portal and it worked well for me instantly.

I wanted to copy this folder on another installation of Bonita on another computer, but at this point, the content is refreshed and reset automaticcaly by Bonita.

I also tried to edit files in bonita_home\client\platform\tenant-template\work\theme\portal
To change the bonita-portal-theme.zip (and css) in tomcat\webapps\bonita\WEB-INF\classes, even to edit them into the bonita.war file ...

Without any success.

Is there any way to correctly deploy a customization for the portal ?

Thanks

Actually, don't bother. Apologies for the bluntness, but changing Studio in any way is very difficult and will be changing the the new releases coming up (so I've heard)

Portal can be changed (the one without studio) but studio portal has been tried by many with lots of frustration and failure.

You should now the previous answer is NOT for Community. It is for subscription only.

I only want to change the portal look. (change the red color to something more blueish)
That's what I've done by editing the CSS file and some images, but I can't copy them into another Portal setup without everything being reset to the red theme when I start the engine ...

How can I deploy the new theme properly ?

Thanks.

You can't for Studio...it recreates the platform every time...

Why is it working on my computer then ?

And this morning my colleague rebooted his computer and all of a sudden his Bonita Portal theme has changed ...
(we did edit the ZIP, WAR, and so on ...)

Is it possible on the Engine only then ? and how ?

Thanks Sean.

Hummmmmmmmmmmmm, interesting.

It's night time here so I don't know. Just how did you do it and can you recreate it?

I don't really now actually ...
We just changed the ZIP and WAR content with the new theme, and suddenly it was ok ...
This is really really strange.

When you say Portal do you mean Studio Portal or Production Portal?

A) If Studio Portal - and it is a short answer - Don't try it, it's been tried many times before and doesn't work. Unless of course you BUILD your own copy of Bonitasoft from Source and make the changes here.

B) If Production Portal then this is possible and is explained in various other posts, however here is the short version:

  1. Backup the Bonitasoft database
  2. Extract the two files Content.Zip and CSSContent.txt from the Bonitasoft database table Theme (these are BLOB columns (CONTENT and CSSCONTENT respectively))

  3. Make changes according to this post (UPDATED)
    http://community.bonitasoft.com/node/25346#node-25357

  4. reZip Content.Zip correctly

  5. Import the two files Content.Zip and CSSContent.txt to the Bonitasoft database table Theme overwriting the previous data (CONTENT and CSSCONTENT respectively)

Hope this helps
