Lazy Humhub theming

  1. Create a folder MyTheme as a copy of public/themes/HumHub
  2. Delete the views rm -rf MyTheme/views/*
    • these will be fetched from the base theme HumHub.
  3. In css add a mystyle.css file
    • here you'll do all your changes then.
  4. In the theme.css only add in a new first line: @import url("./mystyle.css");

This way most changes will not effect your adjustments and you don't have to bother using a less compiler.

I bought it. I'd say it's a bit overpriced, but you learn a good chunk if you knew nothing before.
