    Hi

    Is there any way to change the admin theme? I find the green and peach - well - not good :(

    Thanks

    It is possible by modifying the "css/main.css" file. Basically all the styles are being set there.
    Unfortunately, I won't be able to provide you with the complete instructions, since there are many code which needs to be adjusted.

    If you are using Firefox and familiar with Firebug, I suggest to use Firebug inspect tool.

    I would love to be able to change the admin theme without having to mess with code. I agree that the green and peach is very distracting. A more neutral eye pleasing theme in the future would be greatly appreciated.

    Here you go:

    this blue color theme for the admin panel will be available within 3.2... soon!
    You will be able to change the theme easily from the admin panel.

    Ok, this was fun, so there will be two more themes!

    Green:

    Gray:

    Need to create your own theme? Don't worry, you will only need to edit one CSS file :-)

    Great work Yunair. The new admin themes seem to be nice and easy on the eyes. Very much looking forward to these in 3.2.

    It would be great if you could make the admin theme css file available for download, prior to the 3.2 release.

    which files needs to be overwritten? Or is it safe to just overwrite the entire folder?

    Thanks.

    Sorry, to confirm we can change the Admin theme currently on v3.2 from the Admin Panel? I really like the grey and blue colors.

    Yes you can change the Admin theme.

    Go to the main "Settings" section in the admin panel, then under the "Miscellaneous Settings" section choose the theme you want, and then click "Save Settings".

    Choose "Timeless Gray" or "Business Blue", being the ones you mention liking.

    Admin Panel Image URL
    Default Email from Name
    Default email from address
    Machform URL
    File Upload Folder
    Form Manager Max List
    Remove the Powered by machform link from all my forms

    The "Admin Panel Theme" should be the option listed above "Admin Panel Image URL".

    What version shows under "License Information" in the right hand side (next to "Admin Settings") of the Settings screen?

    It may be a browser cache issue; try clearing your browser cache and reloading the page as it could still be showing remnants of Ver 3.0 or 3.1, whichever you had before 3.2.

    Other than that, not sure what else to suggest.
