Creating an Installable Theme File
If you want to make your theme installable via the Theme Manager, make a zip package from it. The zip package name must be the same as the final folder name of the theme in the /themes folder. The contents of the zip folder must contain the theme files directly, not in a subfolder
- Re-zip directory into zip file (with no hidden Mac files) so that it can be distributed
- `cd /into/folder/where/published/zip/files/were/unzipped`
- `zip -r NameOfModuleZipFile.zip . -x \*.DS_Store -x "__MACOSX"``
- Login to Mautic, click gear in top right hand corner (Settings) then go to the Themes option
- Upload the zip file and click install
- Navigate to the email or landing page template you just uploaded
Troubleshooting / Theme File Not Showing Up?
Mautic can be very finnicky about not showing updates. It uses a cache that seems needs to be cleared after every small change. Here are the steps that will resolve the issue.
- SSH into your Mautic server
- Clear the Mautic Cache (where /var/www/html is the path to your Mautic folder)
- `php /var/www/html/app/console cache:clear`
- If above fails then:
- `rm -rf /var/www/html/app/cache/run/*`
- `rm -rf /var/www/html/app/cache/prod/*`
- Reset the permissions to the web server user (www-data in this case)
- `chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html`
- Make sure the web server user has the permissions to access the needed files
- `chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/app/cache`
- Restart the webserver (Apache via systemd restart in this case)
- `systemctl restart apache2.service`
