Theme Help

This is a simple theme that's just dark and fun. Load up a solid background image or four, and you're good to go!

Provided Blocks

Simple Logo

Simple logo can be used in the "Sitewide Logo" area. Just stick it in there and you're good to go!

Simple Background

Okay, this isn't exactly a block. To set the background:

  • Go to the Homepage
  • Click the "Gear" icon near the top left.
  • Select "Attributes"
  • On the left pane, click "Background" under "Dark Left"
  • That attribute is now seen at the bottom of the right pane.
  • Select an image from the File Manager
  • Update/Save, refresh.
  • Publish if needed.

This will set the image globally across the website, however, you can repeat the same process on any page to override the background for that page.
