Create a Theme for Your Portal Freestyle Site

You will be needing the site URL later on and so we’ll start off by finding it and saving it.

1. Navigate to the Site Directory and find the Supplier Portal tile.

2. Hover over the tile.

   

3. Right-click the URL and select Copy link address.

   

4. Save this link - you’ll be needing it later.

2. Open the UI Theme Designer tool by hovering over the tile and clicking Configure.

2. Select SAP Belize as the Base Theme and click Step 2 to proceed.
   

   

3. Enter the following values:

   Field	Value
   Theme ID	velotics
   Title	velotics

4. Click Create Theme.

   

A new theme named velotics is created as a copy of the SAP Belize theme with the custom properties that you entered.

To design and modify the theme, you need to first define a Target Page that will serve as a canvas upon which you can perform these changes. You will then use the quick theming mode to easily change color scheme, background image, or logo.

1. Enter the Link to Application. This is the runtime URL of your site that you copied previously in Step 1.

2. Click Add to create the target page.

   

3. From the panel on the far right, select the paint brush icon to switch to quick theming.

   

4. Change the company logo by clicking on the right of the Company Logo field.

   

5. In the Assign Image dialog, open the file system browser.

6. Select the logo-velotics.png image file from our resources. Notice that that image has been added to the list of available images.

   

7. Click the image to select it.

8. Click OK to apply your changes. Notice that the change has been applied and the icon has changed.

   

To apply the new theme to your Portal site, you will need to publish it from the UI Theme Designer and then apply it to your site from the Portal Theme Manager.

1. In the UI Theme Designer top level menu select Theme and then Save & Publish.

   

2. From the Save & Publish dialog, verify the theme parameters.
