Location of custom themes in Portal 7.4

Hi,
Our Portal is upgraded from 7.01 to 7.4 recently.We are using the good old portal theme editor.(UI Theme Designer from portal is not activated). I Created a theme based on a standard theme. In the earlier versions of the portal,all the theme related files(images,CSS etc) are stored in the following location in the file system of the portal server
<harddrive>\usr\sap\<instance>\JC00\j2ee\cluster\server0\apps\sap.com\irj\servlet_jsp\irj\root\portalapps\com.sap.portal.design.urdesigndata\themes\portal\
There used to be folder for each theme in the above location.But in the 7.4 portal, I did not see the custom theme folder under the above mentioned location, However, it shows some standard SAP themes and the custom themes that were existent before upgrade, But not the new custom theme that I created post upgrade, Does anyone know where new custom themes are stored in portal 7.4,when they are created by using the theme editor.
Regards
Veera

Hi Veera,
You can find newly created custom theme under WRR(Web Resource Repository), which is newly introduced in new release like 7.4 you are using. It provides a single storage location for all portal application resources and branding resources and enables NW Portal administrators to upload, download, view, and modify these resources, without the need to redeploy applications to see the results of the modifications.
You can find custom themes under:
Portal -> Content Administration -> Web Resource Repository -> Portal Content -> Web Resources -> theming -> Portal -> "Your custome theme"
All custom theme resouces are saved here. But please remember only custom themes are saved in WRR.And you can easily download these theme files like .css file. You can refer to below link for more information:

Apply custom themes to WebDynpro ABAP application in Portal

Hi,
We have just upgraded the E-Recruitment to EHP4. We have two instances of ECC in which one acts as HR instance and the other one for E-Recruitmet. We have created custom themes for portal and need to apply the same for the WebDynpro ABAP applications for E-REcruitment. I have downloaded the theme and from portal and uploaded the same in MIME folder using SE80 transaction. I have also added the parameter sap-cssurl=/sap/public/themes/<my custom theme folder name>.
Also tried giving the url in application parameter as
SAP-EP-THEMEROOT=http://<hostname>/irj/portalapps/com.sap.portal.design.portaldesigndata/themes/portal/customer/<custom theme>
Is there any other way to apply themes for WD ABAP applications. I dont want to customize the standard applications and just want to apply the themes.
Any suggession on this is highly appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Vivek.

you can try these links for adding Themes to a Web Dynpro Application ... You can create your own theme with your company logo ... Optionally there are a few sample themes available ..
1) http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d2b1d790-0201-0010-25b7-d1fb059a8ad9?overridelayout=true&quicklink=index
You can check this link below in which they have discussed about adding themes to the WD application ..
2)Re: Want Colorful WebDynpro Theme to download
For portal themes you have already applied it but still

NW2004s: Assigning a custom theme to a web dynpro running in the portal

The situation is as follows:
Some web-dynpros (for java) have a custom theme, a theme which is not the default theme of the portal or the default theme for web-dynpros in general.
In NW2004 this worked as follows:
When starting a web-dynpro in the portal it checked if it was started with the right theme. If not the exit plug of the WD interface view was called with an Url of the WD application plus a parameter for the right theme.
This is the famous parameter sap-cssurl.
For that parameter there are some values possible:
1) sap-cssurl=http://<host>:<port>/irj/portalapps/com.sap.portal.design.urdesigndata/themes/portal/mytheme
2) sap-cssurl=http://<host>:<port>/irj/portalapps/com.sap.portal.design.portaldesigndata/themes/portal/mytheme
3) sap-cssurl=http://<portal>:<host>/webdynpro/resources/sap.com/tcwddispwda/global/SSR/themes/mytheme
The first 2 are locations of the portal environment, the last one is a location of the WD runtime environment.
As I noticed this must be a full qualified absolute Url including host and port.
This works in NW2004 for web dynpro's running standalone AND in the portal.
Now for NW2004s:
The 3 variants of the parameter sap-cssurl work for web dynpro's running standalone.
But now for web dynpro's which are integrated in the portal:
The exit-plug with an Url is not possible anymore, this leads to the runtime error:
com.sap.tc.webdynpro.services.exceptions.WDRuntimeException: Exit-Plug must no be triggered with an URL when running in portal. Use portal navigation instead to navigate to another application!
Okay, as a first workaround I tried the portal navigation,
but somehow the supplied parameter sap-cssurl has no effect.
The code for that in the on-startup plug of the WD component:
WDPortalNavigation.navigateAbsolute(
PCD_ID,
WDPortalNavigationMode.SHOW_INPLACE,
null,
null,
WDPortalNavigationHistoryMode.NO_HISTORY,
null,
null,
"theme_set=X&" + theme,
 theme,
 false,
 true
I used there absolute portal navigation and the parameter (sap-cssurl=...) is part of the launcher parameter and the business parameter in the call to WDPortalNavigation.navigateAbsolute.
But as I wrote above, this has no effect on the theme.
In the I-View the parameter "Supply portal theme" is set to NO, otherwise the parameter "sap-cssurl" is supplied twice (this can be seen in the poroperties of the web-page in Internet Explorer).
What I tried afterwards was setting the parameter sap-cssurl hardcoded in the "Application parameters" of the I-View. This doesn't work either.
My question is: Should this be anyway possible for a NW2004s portal?
Did anyone successfully implement this?
Kind regards,
 Erich Lind

Hi Erich,
I am facing the same problem. I am on 04 s and couldnot implement the custom theme to a web dynpro running in the portal. When I run the web dynpro app as stand alone, the custom theme applies fine. But when in portal, it takes the standard theme.
Was wondering if you figured this out.
Thanks

Unable to locate custom themes in Keynote '09

I created some custom themes that I want to delete. I have been unable to locate them on my hard drive. The directions in the Keynote '09 User Guide don't point me to the right place. I found the stock themes in Applications> iWork'09> Keynote.app> Contents> Resources> Themes, but my custom themes aren't in there. I've done a global search for the file names and for .kth files, but they don't show up. Can anyone help me locate/delete these themes (that are outdated and cluttering up my themes menu)?
Thanks!

Thanks, Kelly! I had actually just figured it out when I started to save a new template and looked backwards up the file tree. It's all under my user ID rather than the basic "Library" folder. So thanks so much!

SAP Portal custom themes not appearing in 'Personalize' link

Hi.
I am trying to make customised themes available to my users through the 'Personalize' link in the masthead. I have successfully customised the Personalize function so it now includes only the ability to choose themes - all other forms of personalisation have been stripped out. I have also successfully created a customised theme.
My problem is that the custom theme I have created does not appear in the values list within Personalize -> Portal Theme. Only SAP standard themes are appearing in the list. I have managed to assign the theme to users through a display rule, so I know the theme works OK. I have tried exporting and re-importing the theme, this did not help.
Does anybody know how I can make my custom theme available through the Personalize -> Portal Theme list?
Thanks in advance for any help,
Simon.

Hi,
Only the themes present in the desktop in which the users fall will be available in the personalize link.
In detail
System admin->portal display->Desktop and display rule ->open your desktop (in which the user falls)
Add all your custom theme to the desktop.
By now the custom theme will be present in personalize->custom theme.

SAP Portal Custom Themes to change ESS/MSS UI Look and feel , possible ?

Hi,
I have a requirement where the look and feel of the UI controls of the ESS/MSS applications have to be different - Jazzy
I know XSS homepage framework is for the customisation of Areas, Sub Areas. What I am more interested is only the look and feel UI of ESS/MSS applications.
If I change the standard theme of portal using Theme Editor and create a new custom theme with different back ground colors, fonts, sizes for all the UI controls,.Will the customised Theme apply on the standard ESS / MSS screens ? Also my doubt is we are using EHP3 and I am not sure how many are Webdynpro java based or webdynpro Abap based.
Will the theme apply to both WDA and WDJ application UI controls?
Any inputs in this regard will be of great help. thanks in advance.

SRM's WDJ application is not taking custom theme

Hi All,
I'm working on the Portal branding. We have SRM BP deployed in our portal. I've created custom theme and desktop for the user.
I'm able to see the portal's different section as per custom theme. WDA/WDJ application's UI which is opening in the content area of portal is also showing as per theme.

But one WDJ Iview related to MDM catlog data is opening in new window, in that WDJ UI is not taking custom theme color. UI is showing default theme "tradeshow".
I tried few SAP note(Note 1446099 - Web Dynpro application not displayed in customer theme) to synch the patch of portal and WDJ stylsheet but no luck.
Pl share your input to solve the issue.

Problem with Custom Theme and Color of Registers

Hi everybody,
I am implementing a custom theme with EP SP 15 (Sneak Preview). All the changes I am making in the Theme Editor are displayed correctly, except for the colors of the registers.
The preview in the Theme editor works fine but when I activate the theme in the portal the background of the registers is still the same as in the standard theme (the images for the borders or the registers however are the ones I chose).
I read about the caching problem in the SAP library and deleted the browser cache before saving but it didn't help.
Any ideas or hints would be appreciated!
Regards Andy

Hi,
If you are talking about custom registration page, accessed via login page, you have to change its background manually by editing logon package. There is a procedure on help.sap.com how to change logon page.
Here I'm pasting the necessary parts. But hava a look at original doc.
To customize the logon UI, we recommend the following procedure:
 1. Make a copy of com.sap.portal.runtime.logon.par.bak and rename it. In this example, it is renamed to my.new.logon.par.
 2. Move my.new.logon.par to a location outside of the <SAPJ2EEngine-deployment-dir>.
 3. Extract the files from my.new.logon.par preserving the directory structure.
 4. Modify files in the extracted PAR file.
 5. Put the modified files back into my.new.logon.par.
 6. Copy my.new.logon.par back to <SAPJ2Eengine-deployment-dir>\cluster\server\services\servlet_jsp\work\jspTemp\irj\root\WEB-INF\deployment\pcd.
 7. Rename the file <SAPJ2Eengine-deployment-dir>\cluster\server\ume\authschemes.xml.bak to authschemes.xml.
 8. In authschemes.xml, replace all occurrences of the string "com.sap.portal.runtime.logon" with "my.new.logon" in the tags <frontendtarget> and save the file.
 9. Restart the portal.
--> Changing the authschemes.xml File
You can change the authschemes.xml file using the Config Tool of SAP Web Application Server Java. When you edit the file, you should download the file to a local directory, edit it, and when uploading the edited file, create a new node in the configuration tree for it. In this way you do not loose the original version of the file.
 1. Start the Config Tool by executing <SAPJ2EEEngine_installation>\j2ee\configtool\configtool.bat.
 2. Choose the symbol for Switch to configuration editor mode.
 3. In the tree, navigate to cluster_data u00AE server u00AE persistent u00AE com.sap.security.core.ume.service.
 4. To switch to edit mode, choose (Switch between view and edit mode).
 5. In the tree, select authschemes.xml and choose (Show the details of the selected node).
 6. Choose Download and save the file to a local directory.
 7. Edit the file locally.
 8. Create a new node in the configuration tree for the edited file as follows:
 a. Select the node com.sap.security.core.ume.service.
 b. Choose the symbol for Create a node below the selected node ().
 c. Select the type File-entry.
 d. Choose Upload and select the file from your local directory.
 e. Enter the name for the entry, for example, authschemes_productive.xml. By default, the name of the uploaded file is used.
 f. Choose Create.
 g. Choose Close window.
The new node appears in the configuration tree.
For UME to use the new file, you have to change the value of the property login.authschemes.definition.file to the name of the new authschemes file. Change the property as described in Editing UME Properties.
 9. Restart the nodes in the cluster for the changes to take effect.

MOSS 2007 Custom Theme Images Invisible to Users

Hi,
Our MOSS 2007 Site uses Custom Theme and the theme uses image for styling navigation background. The issue is the when a user logs in to site he is not able to view the navigation background image whereas when a user with full control
logs in to site he can view the navigation background image.
Kindly suggest.

Hi,
Is the image stored in a location that standard users have access to (style library)?
Is the image checked-in and published/approved?
Cheers

Custom theme not reflected for Panel control in HRTMC_SHORT_PROFILE application.

Hi All
After the ECC and portal upgrade , I have been facing issues with most of the application being visible in standard SAP theme.
Some changes were resolved by changing the parameter parpghtbgcolor etc.
For the Short Profile panel under HRTMC_SHORT_PROFILE application , the colour of the Panel bar is coming in blue instead of custom theme.
Can you please suggest which parameter value should be changed under
System Administration -> Support -> Themes -> Update Customer Unified Rendering Theme Parameters
Please reply at the earliest.

Remove current Virtu Control Panel/Driver & software with "Your Uninstaller!":

Hi Svet,
Thanks for your reply.
I've done as you requested (although I will point out that Your Uninstaller contains a Toolbar which is flagged as Spyware...) and uninstalled Virtu with Your Uninstaller:
And then I re-installed the version of Virtu Control Centre from your link (it's the same as I downloaded earlier but I re-downloaded it to be sure...), and exactly the same happens:
HU16E, I think your correct. Reading the other issues with the missing Certificate/License on the BIOS has plagued a few other MSI motherboards but has been fixed with BIOS updates - I've submitted a support request to MSI but haven't heard anything back yet. I can't beleive they can/would miss something like this out, it's an integral feature of the Z68 chipset!
I might see if the retailer I bought it from will accept it back for a refund, I'll either get an ASUS or the GD80, unless someone can suggest anything else or MSI come up with a BIOS update sharpish!

How to call custom themes for Web Dynpro ABAP Application?

Hi,
I need to change the appearance of Web Dynpro ABAP application. So far I followed below steps,
1.     Created theme folder u2018testngou2019 (SE80->MIME Repositoty -> SAP->PUBLIC->BC->UR->nw5->themes -> u2018testngou2019 ).
2.     used program BSP_UPDATE_MIMEREPOS to dowmloaod content of u2018sap_tradeshowu2019 (SE80->MIME Repositoty -> SAP->PUBLIC->BC->UR->nw5->themes -> sap_tradeshowu2019) to desktop.
3.     Modified the themes using Eclipse Theme Editor.
4.     used program BSP_UPDATE_MIMEREPOS to upload modified themes to MIME repository u2018testngou2019 (SE80->MIME Repositoty -> SAP->PUBLIC->BC->UR->nw5->themes -> u2018testngou2019) .
My current URL is like http://server.name:XXXX/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/hrrcf_a_startpage_int_cand?sap-client=XXX.
Now I want to know how custom themes called for Web Dynpro ABAP Application.
Is my approach correct?
...Naddy

Hi Naddy,
What you used is one way and even I failed when tried that method,
Instead go to SE38 - WD_THEMES - and you need to upload the zip file and you need to follow a folder structure.
it is case sensitive, atleast the zip file.
Make a zip file by name "Project.zip" -
Create a Folder Project and have the below folder structure,
1 data - all the properties files and also the designinfo file, below is the code
2 themes - (to get all the files download the theme from portal and you will have all the folders)
   2.1 ur
     2.1.1 name of the theme
       2.1.1.1 common
       2.1.1.2 csf
       2.1.1.3 r
       2.1.1.4 ur - all the css files (would be good if you can get the files from the server.)
       2.1.1.5   WSRP
3 war - empty folder
*.designinfo
isVisible=true
version=7.0.14.1.0
isDefault=false
isSapDesign=false
designName=**** name of the theme
Once done create a zip file and click on Start Import and give the path and will ask for transport request, it will take a while to upload once done as mentioned in the use the parameter sap-ep-themeroot="path"
This will resolve the issue.
