Working with PageBuilder2 theme .html, theme.html, skin.html

For last few days i was struggling to figure out how to modify theme.html and finally i got help from my colleagues Evan and Sanjay and now i am able to modify markup generated for theme.html. Take a look at the screen shot, i did add <h1>This is test modification in theme.html</h1> as first element to the body tag



You will have to use following steps to get it working

• First of all create WebDav connection to /wps/mycontenthandler/dav/fs-type1 URL, this is the URL that you should use. It seems that http://localhost:10039/wps/mycontenthandler/dav/themelist url is not a valid URL for WebDav, it will keep throwing some weired error



• Once your WebDav connection is established go to themes/PageBuilder2 folder, you will find a theme.html file here and there is locale specific version of theme.html in nls folder. I tried changing the theme.html in PageBuilder2 folder but somehow it never gets picked up instead portal always picks up locale specific version from nls folder
  
  



• Make changes in theme.html and save those changes, if your using WebDav client(WebFolders, BitKinex) on Windows, first you will have to copy the file to local machine, modify it and then copy it back
  
  
  
  

Once your changes are updated you can refresh the page and you should be able to see the modified markup
