This week on the podcast, Kyle and Dan talk about the new psadmin.io Themes for 8.60, and then they discuss how they are currently using the DPK to build new environments and what has changed in the DPK since it was released.
We have released new branding themes for PeopleTools 8.60! The new themes use colors that better match the new Redwood UI color palette, and the underlying stylesheets use the new CSS variables in 8.60.
There are 10 colors to choose from in this release.
But, it’s also very easy to change the colors, or even make your own based on this project. Starting with PeopleTools 8.60, there are new CSS variables to simplify branding changes. There are only 2 color variables used in this project:
:root {
--pt-banner-background-color: #1374BA; /* Primary */
--pt-border-contrast-color: #2C526E; /* Accent */
--pt-strip-height: 0px;
}
You can modify these colors to suit your needs and make the themes match your own branding requirements. The --pt-strip-height variable is to hide the Redwood color strip in the default theme.
The goal of our themes is to simply change the header color (for Fluid and Classic) so you know which environment you are working in. But you can take these new CSS variables and change so much more.
To install the themes, download the IO_STYLE_REDWOOD.zip file from Github and use the Data Migration Workbench to import the project. You can read more about the project and how install it on GitHub.
