Role required: admin

About this task

Publishing multiple themes applies to web instances only.

Procedure

1. In the filter navigator, enter m2m_app_theme.list and press Enter.
   The UX Parent App Theme table appears. This table is used to store the association between multiple themes and a parent application.
2. Select New.
3. On the form, fill in the fields.
   Note:

   Themes created with Theme Builder are automatically added to the UX Parent App Theme table during publishing and don’t require a new record form. To create a theme with Theme Builder see Create a theme with Theme Builder.

   

   Table 1. UX Parent App Theme record form

   Field	Description
   Applicability	Audience that the theme should apply to. For example, you might want to specify that the theme appears only for those users with an admin role. Note: Leaving the Applicability field empty applies the theme to all users.
   Theme	Theme that you want to add to the table.
   Order	Order in which the theme is displayed in the Next Experience Theme user preference. Note: The applicable theme with the lowest order is considered as the default and appears first in the Next Experience Theme user preference. If the user has not made a selection from their Theme user preference, the theme with the lowest order in the UX Parent App Theme table is set as the default theme.
   Application	Application scope.
   UX App	Parent application that you want the theme to apply to.

4. Select Submit.
   After the record has been added to the UX Parent App Themes table, you’re able to change the Applicability, Order, and UX App fields, as needed. If no records are listed in the table and the glide.ui.polaris.theme.custom value is empty, the Unified Navigation base theme is displayed.
