Themes

A theme is very easy to make. To find your themes, go into the Config.ini file found in the SwitchMediaHost folder. At the very bottom of this file, you can see your themes. A theme looks like this:

black = black, white, lightgrey, black, icon.png, Switch Media Host

(Background color*, Font color*, Hover text color*, Scroll bar color*, Main logo, Title of page, Background Image)

You can use HTML color codes as well. To change your current theme, edit the line in Config.ini that says 'theme' to the theme you want.
Note: The scroll bar has issues with the background image, HTML issue


Config.ini

Inside of Config.ini, you will find a few settings.The first setting is the Theme. Change this to the theme you want, all of the themes are found at the bottom of the file. One other setting is disable-video. With this enabled, it will not load videos on the main page (Like 1.2.0 and below). This allows for faster loading times in most cases. Another option is events. With this enabled, on special holidays it'll change your sites theme, like Halloween . This setting is on by default.
