Hi there,

Did you check this post? Your issue appears to be similar enough, please verify that you followed all the steps.

Sir I did these steps.

  1. Clone the taiga-front repositroy, (not taiga-front-dist)
  2. Created my new custom theme directry in path app/themes/CustomThem
  3. Add theme name in file conf.json in themes array
  4. run npm install, and npx gulp after that added dist directory
  5. I deploy this direcoty in my docker container (taiga-front) in /usr/share/nginx/html/
  6. and reloaded my nginx’s service. But it doesnt help
    (I am sorry for my bad english )

Have some problems, somebody know how to upload another theme? Or support taiga dead?

Hi there!

Did you also change the default theme in the conf.json file?

Best regards!

Hi there,

Just to be clear, this is a community site, with no expectation that we, the Taiga team, provide support.

The intent of this site is for the community to share tips, tricks, and help each other out. Tens of thousands of people use Taiga for free, and especially with self-hosted each one has their configurations, modifications and such. So it is not realistic to expect us to provide support.

That said, we do our best to answer to most if not all the posts here. For problems with the SaaS (tree.taiga.io) we do have support@taiga.io

We just say this to clarify expectations, since you are worried that support is dead. It is alive and well.

In any case, if you can share your issue, we’ll be happy to help.

Best regards!

Sir, I have changed the file from /conf/conf.example.json to /conf/conf.json and added these lines:

“themes”: [
“taiga”,
“MyTheme”
],
After that, I ran npm install and npx gulp. The dist directory appeared, but when I deployed it to my server, I could not find MyTheme in the frontend.

Did you also change the line that says "defaultTheme": "taiga" in conf.json to be your theme?

Best regards!

Yes, don’t help. Im ready to donate for video guide how to build front with my theme. Im fight with this 2nd month.

In 2 months of searching for answers, I found many topics, pages on github and third-party forums, none of them closed their question, no one was able to add their custom theme. Can you just confirm that this is not possible and I will stop wasting time on this product and paying for the server?
