CONFIGURING YOUR THEME TO RECEIVE UPDATES

The following is highly recommended when using our themes to allow you to overwrite your theme with future updates, while retaining your customizations. Note that failure to use this method may result in updates which erase your changes.

Click on the name of your newly instally theme, and rename it as you choose, such as: 'Theme Name - Parent'

11. If you wish to use your new theme as the Default Style, be sure to visit Admin -> Home -> Options -> Appearance

You should now make all your customizations, including Style Properties, Theme Settings, Templates Edits, and Custom CSS, in the child-style. We recommend you do not make any changes to the parent style.

When upgrading, simply overwrite the parent style to introduce the new changes, without affecting your customizations in the child-style.
  1. Go to Style Properties -> Your Theme -> Header & Navigation, and change the 'Logo Image Path' field from logo-temp.png to logo.png
  2. Open the logo.psd file in your /PSD/ folder and edit the existing text, or paste your logo onto the canvas. Save as transparent .png format as logo.png. Upload to:
    /styles/nulumia/themename/xenforo/skin/logo.png
Refer to the /documentation/readme.html file in your download package for added tutorials.

UPGRADING
  1. Upload all files to your forum, overwrite as needed.
  2. Admin Styles -> Import Style -> On the next page, select your disabled parent style to be Overwritten. Click Import Style.

    You should never overwrite your child-style, as you will lose any customizations or settings!

Typically, we only integrate free plugins, however there are a few premium examples supported, such as XenPorta 2. To see whether the plugins you use are included, check the full Plugin Compatibility list here.

SUPPORT FAQ

Q: How often are your themes updated?

A: Very often - depending on the theme, sometimes as much as several times per week!

Q: How can I get support?
A: You can get support via any number of methods, including posting here at Xenforo.com; our official Support Forum; email at [email protected]; our Twitter or Facebook channels, etc. For in-depth help it's also possible to schedule chat on Skype or Messenger.

Q: If a bug is reported, what happens next?
A: As stated, most themes at Nulumia are constantly undergoing new improvements. All incoming bugs are addressed asap and included in the next available update. For emergency or very custom changes (for a given website), a Hotfix may be provided right away until the theme is updated publicly.

Q: Do you provide installation service?
A: Not at this time, but it is being considered to provide in the future for a small fee.

Installation FAQ

Q: Do I need to do anything fancy when installing?

A: We highly recommend creating two instances of your theme, in a parent-child configuration. This is so you may receive updates without erasing custom changes.

To do this, install your theme as normal. Then, select Create A New Style, and select your new theme as the parent. This will create an identical child-style. Now, simply deactivate your parent style and make all changes in the child-style only. This way, you may upgrade and overwrite the parent style at anytime to keep your themes up to date, without losing your customizations!

Q: Everytime I install or update the theme, the logo is missing!
A: This is normal. Each theme is set to load themename/xenforo/skin/logo-temp.png by default. This is so when uploading your files during an upgrade, it doesn't overwrite your existing logo! After each install/update, simply go to Style Properties, Header & Navigation, and change the logo path back to logo.png.

Q: How can I customize the features?
A: You can change settings by going into your Style Properties and opening the [Nulumia] property groups. For full tutorials, read the /documentation/readme.html file included in your download package.
