Gitea Theme Loading + Template Customization

[benjifrank]

Loving Cloudron! Thank you for this! Having trouble with Git customization though and struggled for many hours today with it ...

Issue summary

Issues with:
1-Successfully load a custom theme️
2-Successfully load custom templates. ️
3-The app.ini works fine when I make an edit and reload Gitea via Cloudron's file manager but I can't get the others two things to go.

My efforts with theme

I tried dropping a CSS file call "theme-gitea-modern.css" and "modern.css" in the custom directory and also both those files in the "custom/public" directory and then I also add the names "modern" and "gitea-modern" at the end of the themes variable inside app.ini so that my app.ini looks like this THEMES = auto,gitea,arc-green,gitea-modern,modern .... just trying to cover all the possibiliies. But it still didn't work.

I am wondering if custom directory is being properly set by Cloudron still? Or maybe I need to chang anything else in app.ini? The Cloudron doc section this is pretty short. Also ...

Efforts with template

1. Added some .tmpl files found on github in the custom directory to the custom directory in Cloudron's file manager
2. Rebooted Gitea
3. Result = Don't see the same html appearing in Gitea HTML output

Where I put the files.

Thank you!

Any input or help is greatly appreciated.

@benjifrank The location of css assets have changed. It is now in CUSTOM/public/assets/css (starting from 1.21.0 it seems). The templates are also not into custom directly , but into templates/base it seems. Not 100% sure but it seems like that unlikes color themes, there can only be 1 template (?) because the template names don't have a theme prefix....

Anyway, so, my directory structure is like this:

root@fd219d58-a046-4087-910f-ffca7d16dfee:/app/data/custom# find .
.
./templates
./templates/base
./public
./public/assets
./public/assets/img
./public/assets/css
./public/assets/css/theme-arc-red.css

I put this in my app.ini:

[ui]
THEMES = gitea-auto,gitea-light,gitea-dark,arc-red
DEFAULT_THEME = arc-red

Restarted the app.

And then I do red color scrollbars etc.
