I agree with Micheal's comment on the document, we should keep and update the page. We should maintain document by dividing it into two parts: 1.

Hi Pierre, As a kind reminder, because of OFBiz® trademark, in your mails you should not use "OFBiz Extensions Marketplace" which seems to say that it's *THE* "OFBiz Extensions Marketplace", but something like "OEM, a marketplace for OFBiz extensions" Same at https://oem.ofbizci.net/oci-2/content?contentId=oem-about TIA Jacques Le 09/07/2017 à 11:54, Pierre Smits a écrit : Hi Parminder, An overview of E-commerce supporting themes can be found at [1], including the Bootstrap based EC BOOTSTRAP [2] theme.

Visual Themes Gallery
Hi, Should we keep and maintain this page? https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Visual+Themes+Gallery If we do should we remove the old themes (they still are there in the SVN repo)? And also, if we keep the page, the Rainbow theme misses. Thanks Jacques
Re: Visual themes and gradlew
I would like to say that the suggestion by mike cleared up the issue and now my template is loading and displaying, so i can now head off and start creating my theme. I will be also implementing the suggestion from Pierre. A couple more related questions. 1. Do I need to clear the caches each time i change the .tpl files on ofbiz? 2. If I add new assets, and update the manifest file (ThemeData), do i need to reload the data?

Re: Visual themes and gradlew
Hi Tim, The best approach (for production environments) is, when initialising your implementation, to only load data designated as 'seed' and 'seed-initial' once. And for loading the rest of the data sets (such as your implementation specifics) to use the import functionalities provided through the system and data admin tools (via webtools).

Re: Visual themes and gradlew
Thanks Mike, Importing a file is a good practice. Tim, if you need to import several files, better to register them (in your ofbiz-component.xml) as ext and not seed, see entityengine.xml for more about that, here is an extract tenant = OFBiz and External Tenant Data seed = OFBiz and External Seed Data - to be maintained along with source and updated whenever a system deployment is updated seed-initial = OFBiz and External Seed Data - to be maintained along with source like other seed data, but only loaded initially and not updated when a system is updated except manually reviewing each line demo = OFBiz Only Demo Data ext = External General Data (custom) ext-test = External Test Data (custom) ext-demo = External Demo Data (custom) HTH Jacques Le 26/04/2017 à 17:14, Mike a écrit : Because you left the reader-name="seed": To load it, you have to: gradlew "ofbiz --load-data readers=seed" Which reloads ALL the seed, including yours --or-- (better) Load it directly: gradlew "ofbiz --load-data file=RELATIVE_PATH/data/AsmultiflexThemeData.xml" On Wed, Apr 26, 2017 at 2:12 AM, Tim Hawkins wrote: I'm a beginner to of-biz, and I have been trying to edit the eCommerce templates.

Accessing this from the web-store config page i can see that the theme is not loaded or recognized. However there are no instructions on how to do this with the gradlew tool, so i tried sudo ./gradelw "ofbiz --load file=templates/asmultiflex/ ofbiz-component.xml" This produced a bunch of errors (added at the end) and clearly did not load the theme, as its still not accessible. The questions i need answering are: 1) Is this correct for duplication a theme, I followed the instructions in the how to up until it started talking about using "ant" 2) Is the the mechanism i have used to load it valid, if not what is the correct method. 3) is there any better documentation around that relates to tasks on a post gradlew version. I have considered reverting to a much older version just to be aligned with the documentation and the two books I have purchased which turned out be as much use as a chocolate teapot. Is there any howto guides on how to setup and configure of-biz for a simple web store, the docs in confluence seem to be very incomplete and make way too many assumptions about what the reader knows. I managed to get it installed on ubuntu 14.05, running version 16.11.01, using a MySQL database and using apache2 with a mod_proxy_ajp setup with letsencrypt providing the ssl certs. But this last step has me flumoxed. Any advice on the setup of a workflow for developing the themes would also be helpful.

Visual themes and gradlew
I'm a beginner to of-biz, and I have been trying to edit the eCommerce templates. I'm using the latest version. I first copied the template for "multiflex" a new version called "asmultiflex" so i have a copy of the whole tree under templates/asmultiflex Then I edited the the file themes/asmultiflex/ofbiz-component.xml and changed all references to "asmultiflex" I also changed the name of the file in the Data directory to match, ie http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation=" http://ofbiz.apache.org/dtds/ofbiz-component.xsd";> Then i renamed the MultiflexThemeData.xml file in themes/asmultiflex/data to AsmultiflexThemeData.xml and edited ti to be: So far so good. I did notice that inside the webapp folder there was a complete copy of the files in the root, and was not sure what to do with them. Accessing this from the web-store config page i can see that the theme is not loaded or recognized. However there are no instructions on how to do this with the gradlew tool, so i tried sudo ./gradelw "ofbiz --load file=templates/asmultiflex/ofbiz-component.xml" This produced a bunch of errors (added at the end) and clearly did not load the theme, as its still not accessible. The questions i need answering are: 1) Is this correct for duplication a theme, I followed the instructions in the how to up until it started talking about using "ant" 2) Is the the mechanism i have used to load it valid, if not what is the correct method. 3) is there any better documentation around that relates to tasks on a post gradlew version. I have considered reverting to a much older version just to be aligned with the documentation and the two books I have purchased which turned out be as much use as a chocolate teapot. Is there any howto guides on how to setup and configure of-biz for a simple web store, the docs in confluence seem to be very incomplete and make way too many assumptions about what the reader knows. I managed to get it installed on ubuntu 14.05, running version 16.11.01, using a MySQL database and using apache2 with a mod_proxy_ajp setup with letsencrypt providing the ssl certs. But this last step has me flumoxed. Any advice on the setup of a workflow for developing the themes would also be helpful. Errors produced are: thawkins@ofbiz-lon-yousoc:/opt/apache-ofbiz-16.11.01$ sudo ./gradlew "ofbiz --load file=themes/asmultiflex/ofbiz-component.xml" ...

Re: Rainbow Stone themes
Unfortunately the rainbowstone theme is not available in the r15.12 branch. See [1] If you want to try it out you could add a copy of it as an hot-deploy component ans see how it goes. I have disentangled it from the trunk code base as a separate repo that you can apply as an svn:external of git submodule. You can fork it from [2] [1] https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ofbiz/branches/release15.12/themes/ [2] https://github.com/OFBizCI/rainbowstone Best regards, Pierre Smits ORRTIZ.COM <http://www.orrtiz.com> OFBiz based solutions & services OFBiz Extensions Marketplace http://oem.ofbizci.net/oci-2/ On Sun, Mar 26, 2017 at 6:45 PM, Carlos Cruz wrote: > Thx!!

Re: Fwd: Different themes for different apps
Hi, I think ofbiz not provide any option to do like you want. You can do something like, Set Visual Themes based on specific module, means when you click on catalog, run a service to set visual theme as Dropping Crumbs theme, or when you click on ordermgr, run a service to set visual theme as Flat grey.

Hi Raghu, Are you talking about ofbiz backend module like, catalog, ordermgr or partymgr etc. Or Front-end design for different websites or app. If you use multiple website based on multiple product store then you can set theme based on product store setting.

Re: Visual Themes in wiki
The "Old School" theme was designed by me (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-918). Layout was easily broken in that theme - that was one of the motivators for removing it. At the time no one objected, and no one stepped forward to maintain it. Even now - no one is maintaining the Old School theme found in the Wiki. I understand your frustration, but it is clear there is very little interest in keeping that theme in the project.

Hi Eric, It might be so that your additions to ecommerceUiLabels.xml are overriden by translations in other label files. To see which ones are uses start by having a look at the CommonScreens.xml file in the component. Then work your way through every screen file to see if there are any more additions of uiLabelMap files. It might also be so that form fields have different naming for titles than expected.

Re: changing themes in flat grey.
have plenty of horizontal space. I have a patch that does that, but it's not ready for committing yet. -Adrian Quoting Ryan Fostermailto:cont...@ryanlfoster.com>>: Actually, if you were to calculate total screen real estate and compare pixels of the header, tabs, and footer of the "Old School" (Old Flat Grey) vs. the header and footer of "Dorian Grey" (New Flat Grey), I believe there is actually more total workspace area in the new theme. The difference is where those pieces are in relation to the fold on the old vs. new. I do think that it would be be a good idea, however, to add back in to the new theme the ability to collapse the header again. That way, if you are working in a particular application such as the Catalog Manager or Accounting, etc. for an extended period of time and did not have an immediate need for the main application nav, you could collapse it out of the way and free up even more screen space.

Re: changing themes in flat grey.
Actually, if you were to calculate total screen real estate and compare pixels of the header, tabs, and footer of the "Old School" (Old Flat Grey) vs. the header and footer of "Dorian Grey" (New Flat Grey), I believe there is actually more total workspace area in the new theme. The difference is where those pieces are in relation to the fold on the old vs. new. I do think that it would be be a good idea, however, to add back in to the new theme the ability to collapse the header again.

Re: Visual Themes
Ah okay sorry, the general.properties setting only applies if the UserPreference record from CommonTypeData.xml that you mentioned is missing. Also the wiki looks wrong to me, it should be partyId="_NA_" and not partyId="NA" Once you've changed the CommonTypeData.xml file you'll need to run ant run-install-seed ant run-install should only be used when you have an empty database since it also loads seed-initial data which should only be loaded once per install.

Re: Visual themes error
Resolved
The problem was into USER_PREFERENCE table
with
user_login_id='admin'
user_pref_type_id='VISUAL_THEME'
user_pref_value='DEFAULT'
I changed user_pref_value into by ex. "FLAT_GREY"
Where does 'DEFAULT' come from : seed data ?

Hello,
My development server works fine.
But my production server (same official trunk version
768363) has a problem with visual themes.
After I logged into any applications, the page doesn't
have an header, footer and appbar :

Into ${ofbiz

are (I think) wrong default values :
Because default files don't exist.
I don't know why 2 servers runs differently with the
