SUNScholar/XMLUI Theme

Back to Theme

Introduction

This page describes the method for customising DSpace using the Manakin (XMLUI) interface with the supplied Mirage themes.

This procedure is much easier to achieve if you build yourself an Ubuntu desktop computer to use first.

Requirements

1. Use port 80 and 443 as default on the Tomcat Java webapp server.
2. Configure chosen UI as the default ROOT Java webapp.

Step 4 - Check Theme Repository

Check out the following theme repositories.

• http://web.lib.sun.ac.za/style/sunscholar/theme
• https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Repository+of+XMLUI+themes
• https://github.com/LongsightGroup/DSpace/tree/longsight-4_x/dspace-xmlui/src/main/webapp/themes
