Managing Theme Attributes

This topic describes the tasks related to adding and modifying theme attributes, which define the appearance and branding of your Oracle Permitting and Licensing service. A theme can contain one or more configured theme attributes.

Working with Theme Attributes

A branding theme represents the collection of elements giving your application your customized user experience. Theme attributes represent the particular element that you want to customize within your branding theme, such as the logo image, the application name, or the header font color.

This example illustrates the Theme Details page.

A theme can contain one more theme attributes. A theme attribute is not a standalone definition; it must be associated with a theme.

Each theme attribute is comprised of these properties:

• Theme Name: The theme to which you add the theme attribute.

• Name: A predefined set of attributes, selected from a drop-down list.

• Value: You customized value (label text, color, and so on).
