If you have feedback on the default theme applied to all exhibits, e.g. using alternative fonts, background colors, layout, image viewer functionality, or etc, please reach out to CUL-IT at help-exhibits-library@cornell.edu, as your suggestion may be able to help all exhibits, rather than be constrained to a single custom theme.

Example theme

Admin users can test out how themes work by selecting the "Example" theme in their Configuration > Appearance tab of their Exhibit Dashboard (see below: Applying or Removing a Custom Theme).

The Example theme helps demonstrate how themes can style your exhibit:

  • In general: themes allow exhibits to customize their fonts, font color, background color, spacing between elements, etc.
  • Applying style to any given element will apply that same style to that element on all pages in your exhibit:
    • For example, the custom page title styling applied with the Example theme exists on all page titles, including page titles in your Exhibit Dashboard!
    • The custom border and background on the text widget display will apply to every text widget on all editable exhibit pages (e.g. Home, Curated Feature, About).
