Back to Mirage 2 Theme
Introduction
These wiki pages will assist you in customising the Mirage 2 theme that was introduced with DSpace 5.X.
Please read the requirements first, to gain an understanding of the "bootstrap" framework, then proceed with the rest of the customisation.
This customisation is very basic and intended for those who have some web 2.0 design skills.
After you have completed your customisation, you will have to rebuild DSpace.
It is assumed that you installed DSpace according to: http://wiki.lib.sun.ac.za/index.php/SUNScholar/DSpace.
And it is assumed that the Mirage 2 theme was installed according to: http://wiki.lib.sun.ac.za/index.php/SUNScholar/XMLUI_Theme/M2.
