Title: How to change Author info on new theme
Post by: Shades. on January 23, 2022, 12:35:16 PM
How do I change Authors in the area where members can select there themes? I need to change the author to my new theme but I need it to be in the package when I finalize and put it in a zip file.

Right now any theme I create all say:

The default theme from Simple Machines.

Author: The Simple Machines Team


And I'd like it to say:

MyTheme by ShadesWeb.com

Author: Shades


or something like that...lol!

(Not the top default one in the image, just the bottom one that I designed) O:)

You need to add your Settings.english.php file and edit the info there.
If you are running latest GitHub build, when you "create" a theme using the admin option, this file is now added too (it wasn't previously).

In the theme's language folder open Setting.english.php
