4.0

CSS files

• Each Abiquo theme now has only one CSS file called theme.css that contains all CSS elements

Upgrade steps

1. Create a main theme.css file and copy inside it the content of theme_unsecured.css and theme_secured.css in that order
2. Set the new theme.css as the default theme. The default theme configuration will persist after Abiquo upgrades. See Abiquo branding admin guide#Set a default theme
3. Create enterprise theme.css files for individual tenants by renaming the theme_secured.css files to theme.css
4. In Abiquo 4.0, the version of noVNC has been upgraded. To update the noVNC branding, add the appropriate elements to the theme_novnc.css file, as described in Branding noVNC
5. You can also brand the WMKS console for vCloud director with the theme_wmks.css file

You can set a default theme using a symbolic link named "default" to the theme folder, or by copying the theme folder. See Abiquo branding admin guide#Setadefaulttheme

Action plan tree display fix

In Action plan tree display, the VM name disappears when opening the action plan list. This is a CSS issue in the theme that can be fixed manually.

Edit the /theme/CLIENT_THEME/css/theme.css

Add these lines:

/* Set color to an open VM in the tree */
.virtual-appliance-control-list a .main-menu-section-link-active {
color: #051861; /* Or desired color */
}
/* Set color to a selected Action Plan */
.virtual-appliance-control-list .ab-topiclist-tree .ab-active a {
color: #FFFFFF; /* Or desired color */
}

4.2

Branding Guacamole for remote access to VMs

• Guacamole tab title will be renamed with VM label.
• Guacamole styling will load the default theme found at theme/default/css/theme_guacamole.css

See Branding Guacamole

Theme update as part of upgrade

If you are upgrading from version 4.2.x or earlier, and you are using custom themes, make the following changes to your themes as part of the upgrade process.

1. Check that main menu buttons are properly defined. If not, users may see several superimposed buttons.
   

   If you are not using custom main buttons, delete this block that defines the old icons from the theme CSS file: 

   Code Block

   .main-menu-section-link-icon-home {background:url(../img/mainmenu-buttons.png) no-repeat 0px 0px} .main-menu-section-link-icon-structure {background:url(../img/mainmenu-buttons.png) no-repeat 0px -30px} .main-menu-section-link-icon-data {background:url(../img/mainmenu-buttons.png) no-repeat 0px -60px;} .main-menu-section-link-icon-library {background:url(../img/mainmenu-buttons.png) no-repeat 0px -90px;} .main-menu-section-link-icon-users{background:url(../img/mainmenu-buttons.png) no-repeat 0px -119px;} .main-menu-section-link-icon-pricing{background:url(../img/mainmenu-buttons.png) no-repeat 0px -150px;} .main-menu-section-link-icon-events{background:url(../img/mainmenu-buttons.png) no-repeat 0px -180px;} .main-menu-section-link-icon-configuration{background:url(../img/mainmenu-buttons.png) no-repeat 0px -210px;} .main-menu-section-link-icon-dashboard {background:url(../img/mainmenu-buttons.png) no-repeat 0px -295px} .main-menu-section-link-icon-home-active {background-position:-39px 0px;} .main-menu-section-link-icon-structure-active {background-position:-39px -30px;} .main-menu-section-link-icon-data-active {background-position:-39px -60px;} .main-menu-section-link-icon-library-active {background-position:-39px -90px;} .main-menu-section-link-icon-users-active {background-position:-39px -119px;} .main-menu-section-link-icon-pricing-active {background-position:-39px -150px;} .main-menu-section-link-icon-events-active {background-position:-39px -180px;} .main-menu-section-link-icon-configuration-active {background-position:-39px -210px;} .main-menu-section-link-icon-dashboard-active {background-position:-39px -295px}

   To customize an icon, disable the default icon and set the new icon. 

   For example, to make the infrastructure icon point to the myButton PNG file.

   Code Block
   # Disable the default icon: .main-menu-section-link-icon-structure .main-menu-section-link-icon-default{ visibility: hidden;} # Set the new icon: .main-menu-section-link-icon-structure {background:url(../img/myButton.png)}

   
   

2. Define the styles for the progress bars for the Dashboard metrics chart
   Add this code to the theme CSS file.

   Code Block

   /* Progress bar */ .progress-bar { background-color: #003245; } .resource-progress-bar { background-color: rgb(147,228,147); } .resource-used-over-soft-limit { background-color: #ffe877; } .resource-soft-limit { background-color: #FFA500; } .resource-hard-limit { background-color: #FF0000; } .resource-progress-bar-nolimit { background: rgb(147,228,147); /* For browsers that do not support gradients */ background: -webkit-linear-gradient(left, rgba(147,228,147,0.9), rgba(147,228,147,0)); /* For Safari 5.1 to 6.0 */ background: -o-linear-gradient(left, rgba(147,228,147,0.9), rgba(147,228,147,0)); /* For Opera 11.1 to 12.0 */ background: -moz-linear-gradient(left, rgba(147,228,147,0.9), rgba(147,228,147,0)); /* For Firefox 3.6 to 15 */ background: linear-gradient(left, rgba(147,228,147,0.9), rgba(147,228,147,0)); /* Standard syntax */ }
