In some cases, you will want to apply a different theme to a specific space, in this case you can overwrite the default site theme.

To apply a Theme Press theme to a space you must already have the Brikit Theme Press Add-on installed in your instance of Confluence. If you haven't done this yet, or aren't sure, you'll need to confirm with your Platform Administrator, Systems Administrator or Network Manager. Learn more about installing Theme Press here.

 

Vanilla, a built-in theme, is automatically set as the default site theme when Theme Press is installed. Any new space created in the site will use the default site theme when the space is created (as will each page in the space.) Additionally, this default site theme is used for all Confluence admin pages, such as the user profile page, and is automatically applied to the Theme Press Default space, which houses the architect pages used by Theme Press to populate banners, headers, menus, footers, and page designs (layouts).

The sections below will help you learn how to set your default site theme, and how to override it on a specific space.

 

Confluence Theme vs. Theme Press Theme

The word THEME is used by Atlassian to define applying a theming add-on, like Theme Press. Additionally, Brikit uses the word THEME to define the overall branded design applied within the Theme Press environment. Under Site Theme in Confluence Administration, Brikit Theme Press should be your Current Theme.

Here's how:

  1. Open the Architect tab in the Theme Press Designer.
  2. Expand the Space Theme accordion.
  3. Click the Use Space Theme button.
  4. Click the magnifying glass to the right of the Space Theme setting.
  5. Select a theme from the Available Themes section.
    The Change Space Theme window opens.
  6. Click the OK button to confirm the change and wait for the theme to update.

 

If you don't see the Architect tab when you open the Designer, it means your permissions are not set properly. Contact your Administrator to have this corrected.
