  1. If you are installing a brand new theme that is not distributed with Manakin then preform the following operations, otherwise skip to the next step. <p class="Example">
    Code Block
    cp
    new-theme-source dspace-src/dspace/modules/xmlui/src/main/webapp/themes/theme-dir
  2. Open Manakin's configuration file, dspace/config/xmlui.xconf, scroll to the bottom and locate the <themes> element.
  3. Add a new tag <theme> element inside the <themes> element as below:
    Code Block
    &lt;theme name="My new theme" path="[theme-dir]"/&gt;
  4. If you wish to install this theme onto a particular community or collection then modify the new <theme> tag as:
    Code Block
    &lt;theme name="My new theme" handle="123/1" path="[theme-dir]"/&gt;
  5. If you wish to install this theme as the default theme then modify your new <theme> tag (make sure this tag is the last theme defined):
    Code Block
    &lt;theme name="My new theme" regex=".*" path="[theme-dir]"/&gt;
