  1. Depending on application that you want to change theme, list of available themes is stored into files:

  • For HCP Application, a list of available themes is located in file appConfig.config under section <themeList> . File is located in folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Atomia\HostingControlPanel\App_Data

  • For BCP Application, list of available themes are located in file appConfig.config under section <themeList>. File is located in folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Atomia\BillingCustomerPanel\App_Data

  • For Order page Application, a list of available themes is stored in file Web.Config file under section <themeList>. File is located in folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Atomia\PublicOrderPage

  • For Identity Application, a list of available themes is stored in file Web.Config file under section <themeList>. File is located in folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Atomia\Identity\STS

  • isActive => defines the theme that is active by default. Switching themes manually can be done by adding the query string ?theme=ThemeName to URL of page you are visiting in the application.

  • Name => name of theme

  • parentTheme => the theme that the custom theme is based on. Fallback for files that are not overridden in custom theme.


  1. Copy any files you want to customize for a new theme from the parent theme to corresponding folder in your custom theme. Depending on what application theme you want to update your theme folder will be located under that application. IMPORTANT: Do not copy files that you do not want to change from the NewDefault or Default theme to your own custom theme, especially not view files. This might lead to your theme breaking if and when there are updates to the NewDefault and Default themes.
