Anatomy of a Theme

gpEasy Themes are unique in that they can contain multiple variations of a single style. Below is an overview of how to structure your theme files and folders.

Necessary Files

A theme consists of just three files and one folder:

../Your_Theme/template.php
The template.php file contains the html of your theme and a few simple php function calls to include the appropriate content.
../Your_Theme/settings.php
The settings.php file should contain at a minimum the $GP_STYLES settings used by gpEasy to enable True WYSIWYG
../Your_Theme/Color/style.css
The css for your theme. You don't need to reference the style.css file in your html, it will be included automatically.

Optional Files

../Your_Theme/Addon.ini
The Addon.ini file is only required if you want to upload your theme to gpEasy.com.

Color Variations

Your theme can contain multiple css variants by adding additional subfolders and style.css files. For example adding the /Your_Theme/Blue/style.css file could be used to add a blue styled variation of your theme.
