Installing your theme

1. Upload theme files

Upload contents of 'upload' folder to your forum directory. Ensure that the 'styles' folder appears like in the following examples:

http://yoursite.com/styles/
(When forum is in the root of your site)
-or-
http://yoursite.com/forum/styles/
(When your forum is at an added directory, such as /forum, /forums, or /community.)

2. Access your forum Admin page

3. Access 'Appearance' -> 'Styles'

4. Click the 'Import Style' link

Click 'Browse' and select the .xml file included in your /xml/ folder in your download package. The .xml file will be in the format:
style_themename_xenx-x-x.xml

5. Click 'Import'

Your theme will be processed and installed for use.

Configuring your theme to receive updates

The following is highly recommended when using our themes to allow you to overwrite your theme with future updates, while retaining your customizations. Note that failure to use this method may result in updates which erase your changes.

6. Go back to your 'Styles' page

Click on the name of your newly instally theme, and rename it as you choose, such as: 'Theme Name - Parent'

7. On the top right of your 'Styles' page, click on 'Create New Style'

8. Select your newly installed theme as the 'Parent Style'. You may use the regular style name for this child-style.

9. Click 'Save Style'. The system will now automatically create a child-style of your new theme, which will be identical.

10. Disable user selection of the parent style by de-checking its checkbox.

11. If you wish to use your new theme as the Default Style, be sure to visit Admin -> Home -> Options -> Appearance

You should now make all your customizations, including Style Properties, Theme Settings, Templates Edits, and Custom CSS, in the child-style. We recommend you do not make any changes to the parent style.

When upgrading, simply overwrite the parent style to introduce the new changes, without affecting your customizations in the child-style.

Upgrading

*** READ BEFORE UPGRADING***
ANY CUSTOM CHANGES YOU HAVE MADE TO THE THEME'S TEMPLATES WILL BE LOST UPON UPGRADING. YOU SHOULD BACKUP ALL CUSTOM ADDED CODE AND REINSERT AFTER RUNNING THE UPGRADE.

1. Upload the files of your new theme package similar to step 1 of Installation. Select Overwrite - Yes to all files.

2. Browse to the .xml file similar to step 4 of Installation

3. However, change the option to 'Overwrite Style' and select your existing parent theme to overwrite.

4. Click 'Import'. Your theme will now be overwritten/upgraded.

First Steps

1. Read 'fonts.txt' included in your theme package. It will provide a link and instructions to download and install any fonts included in your theme's .PSD (Photoshop) files. Without doing this, you will be unable to use custom fonts in the theme.

On PC: Move all fonts to 'c:\Windows\Fonts'.
On Mac: Move all fonts to 'Library/Fonts'.

2. Open '/PSD/logo.psd'

3. Edit the title text layer with your custom name
-- or --
Replace the title text entirely with your own existing logo.

4. Save as 'logo.png' (Transparent PNG format)

5. Upload to:
'/styles/nulumia/themename/xenforo/skin/'

Arriving at a final link of:
'/styles/nulumia/themename/xenforo/skin/logo.png'

6. Visit Admin -> Style Properties -> Basic Options. Change the 'Logo URL' from 'logo-temp.png' to 'logo.png'. Save settings.

Your logo will now appear in your theme.

Customization: Getting Started

Nulumia themes no not use any form of plugins for features, rather all features are built into the theme itself. Thus, all feature settings are located within the Style Properties section of your theme.

Visit your Xenforo admin page and click on Appearance -> Styles. On the next page, select 'Style Properties' for your theme.

You will notice many new property groups have been added:

Each of these property groups contain all the settings you need to customize your theme, along with full custom Style Properties to color and style your theme features! In the next section, we'll walk through each of these property groups in order, with instructions on how to edit various settings.

Unique Theme Options

Responsive Width

DarkTabbed theme comes by default in a fixed width mode (1100px). To make your theme span a larger portion of the screen, simply edit the 'max-width' entry within your Style Properties section:

Visit your Style Properties -> General -> Page setup

Change the "Maximum page width" value as needed.

Save settings.

Changing Colors

Visit your Style Properties -> Color Palette page.

Following are some specific commonly used Nulumia properties:

Changing the dark gray gradient

The navigation, footer, and similar gray gradient areas use the following two colors:
Top color: @xf-nlneutralAlt1
Bottom color: @xf-nlNeutralAlt4

Changing the main theme colors

Most of the theme colors use a gradient from the following two colors:
Top border: @nlBlockHeadBorderColor
Top color: @xf-nlPrimaryAlt3
Bottom color: @xf-nlPrimaryAlt5

A note on DarkTabbed's gradient system

Please note that all elements that use gradients in the theme don't rely on the background-color selector on Style Property pages. Because Xenforo doesn't have a selector for inserting gradients, this value has been inserted in the 'Extra' CSS field of each Style Property using a CSS3 gradient code:
background: linear-gradient(color1, color2);

The background-color selector is usually filled by default as a fall-back for browsers that do not support gradients.

Making New Styles

By changing the global hue slider, you can create new color versions of your theme in seconds. To create different color versions for your members to select, simply create a child-style of your theme and change the colors within the child-style only.

To create multi-color styles, we recommend to start by adjusting the commonly used Nulumia properties mentioned above, which will accomplish most needs.

Google Fonts

https://fonts.google.com

You can embed your own choice of Google web fonts by accessing the Typography style property group.

Your embed code should appear like the following:

<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,700" rel="stylesheet">
  1. Paste your font code in the main field Google Fonts Embed:
  2. Below you can set your headings font family in the Headings field

FAQ & Troubleshooting

Q: I upgraded my theme, and my logo is now missing!

A: This is normal, and is done to prevent your logo from being overwritten. By default the theme is set to load '/styles/themename/xenforo/skin/logo-temp.png'. After updating, simply access Style Properties -> Header & Navigation -> Logo Image Path. Change the path from 'logo-temp.png' back to 'logo.png' and save settings.

Q: I upgraded my theme, and all of my customizations have been lost!

A: You did not use the parent-child configuration mentioned in the Installation instructions, and/or overwrote your primary style. Using this method is recommended for all themes for Xenforo owners. Please refer above to the instructions on setting up your theme from the start in a parent-child style configuration so your theme can receive updates.

Q: I installed/upgraded my theme, but none of the images are showing anywhere.

A: Ensure that you uploaded the files to the proper location - see step 1 of Installation above.

Q: After upgrading, there are two copies of my theme available.

A: You did not select Overwrite style during upgrade. Delete the new style and reupgrade by selecting overwrite to your existing style.

Q: I opened logo.psd but it says there are fonts that are missing. I cannot edit the logo title without it switching to another font.

A: You did not install the fonts before running Photoshop. See fonts.txt for instructions.

Q: I'm running x y or z plugin on my forum and on that plugin's pages, there's strange or default styling showing up.

A: Our themes were tested with several dozen of the most popular FREE plugins on the Xenforo community to ensure styling consistency with those plugins. However we cannot gaurantee styling will match all plugins available. We typically only test with plugins that have a high favorability, ratings, and downloads. Also, we typically do NOT test our themes on commercial/paid plugins. If your theme shows inconsistent styling with any plugin, paid or free, please leave a note on our site at www.nulumia.com and we will do our best to address it either with a custom fix or a patch release of the theme.

Q: I'd like to make some custom styling changes immediately, without waiting for the next build of the theme to release. Where should I safely make these changes?

A: The best place to enter your custom styling is zextra.css in Templates. It is NOT advisable to add or alter anything in the 'znlxxx.css' templates as these are the theme's core css templates and will be overwritted on upgrade. While zextra.css will also be overwritten on upgrade, keeping your custom changes here ensures you only have one template to backup and replace should you ever upgrade your theme. It is not advisable to place custom styling in Xenforo's built in EXTRA.css file as this template is loaded before our custom css, meaning any customizations here will not affect your theme. Therefore, we have provided 'zextra.css' which will always be loaded last.

Q: I'm seeing a new bug in the theme, where can I report it to be fixed?

A: We have numerous ways to contact us at www.nulumia.com. The best place however to report theme or product bugs is at the official support forum on our site or in the official Bug Tracker when it is released.

Q: I have a question I don't see here. Where can I get help?

A: We have numerous channels for support at www.nulumia.com. You may enter a support ticket, view our how-to articles, visit the support forum, visit our contact page, or ask via social media at our @NulumiaSupport Twitter handle.
