Re: [Tiki-devel] Creating custom theme

Hi,

Copying the CSS file to the css directory shouldn't be necessary. Just 
to be sure, is your mytheme.scss in mytheme/scss/ or in mytheme/css? In 
the new build system, this file should be in the mytheme/css directory.

I see now that the themes.tiki.org page shows that the custom theme has 
a templates directory, but I think this might not be correct. Custom 
template files should be in _custom/shared/templates. I don't think 
theme-specific template files are supported.
