---+++ Creating your own look
If you want to make more changes than the themes on this page allow, you have the option to change CSS files and templates to make changes (small or large).

---++++ Template customization
%SYSTEMWEB%.PatternSkinCustomization - how to configure page elements. %TWISTY{link="View Table of Contents..." remember="on"}%%TOC{"%SYSTEMWEB%.PatternSkinCustomization"}%%ENDTWISTY%

---++++ Style sheet customization
%SYSTEMWEB%.PatternSkinCssCookbook - how to customize the visual style. %TWISTY{link="View Table of Contents..." remember="on"}%%TOC{"%SYSTEMWEB%.PatternSkinCssCookbook"}%%ENDTWISTY%

---++++ Changing graphics
The original Photoshop files of the skin graphics (mainly background images) are attached to PatternSkinGraphics.

---++++ Top, Bottom and Left Bar customization

Most will customise top, bottom, and left bars.

   * Topic =%SYSTEMWEB%.WebTopBar= defines the content of the top bar. If this topic does not exist the topic =%SYSTEMWEB%.WebTopBarExample= will define the top bar. Foswiki does not ship with a =WebTopBar= topic so by creating this topic as a copy of =WebTopBarExample= and customizing the copy, you will not later risk that upgrading Foswiki will overwrite your top bar. The top bar is common for all webs.
   * Topic =%SYSTEMWEB%.WebBottomBar= defines the content of the bottom bar. If this topic does not exist the topic =%SYSTEMWEB%.WebBottomBarExample= will define the bottom bar. Foswiki does not ship with a =WebBottomBar= topic so by creating this topic as a copy of =WebBottomBarExample= and customizing the copy, you will not later risk that upgrading Foswiki will overwrite your bottom bar. The bottom bar is common for all webs.
   * Topic =WebLeftBar= defines the content of the left bar. Each web has its own =WebLeftBar=. If this topic does not exist the topic =WebLeftBarExample= will define the left bar. Foswiki does not ship with =WebLeftBar= topics so by creating these topics as copies of =WebLeftBarExample= and customizing the copies, you will not later risk that upgrading Foswiki will overwrite your left bars. You can choose to display the =WebLeftBar= on the right side of the screen.

See these topics for more information: %SYSTEMWEB%.WebLeftBarCookbook, %SYSTEMWEB%.WebLeftBarExample, %SYSTEMWEB%.WebLeftBarLogin, %SYSTEMWEB%.WebLeftBarPersonalTemplate, %SYSTEMWEB%.WebLeftBarSearch, %SYSTEMWEB%.WebLeftBarWebsList, %SYSTEMWEB%.WebTopBarExample, and %SYSTEMWEB%.WebBottomBarExample.

---+++ Installation

*Note:* You do not need to install anything on the browser to use this skin. The following instructions are for the administrator who installs the skin on the server where Foswiki is running.

*Note 2:* !PatternSkin is included with Foswiki by default. Use the following instructions only if you are upgrading !PatternSkin.

   * Download the ZIP file from the Skin Home page (see below)
   * Unzip ==%TOPIC%.zip== in your Foswiki installation directory
   * [[%SCRIPTURLPATH{"view"}%/%WEB%/%TOPIC%?skin=pattern][Test if installed]]
   * For skin activation see [[%SYSTEMWEB%.Skins]]

To set pattern skin as default (site wide) skin, use these settings in [[%MAINWEB%.SitePreferences]]:
   
   * Global skin styles. To change the look of the site, point these variables to custom CSS attachments.
      * Set FOSWIKI_LAYOUT_URL = %PUBURLPATH%/%SYSTEMWEB%/PatternSkin/layout.css
      * Set FOSWIKI_STYLE_URL = %PUBURLPATH%/%SYSTEMWEB%/PatternSkin/style.css
      * Set FOSWIKI_COLORS_URL = %PUBURLPATH%/%SYSTEMWEB%/PatternSkin/colors.css

   * Themes that add upon the global skin styles. Choose from the Theme Browser at PatternSkin.
      * Set PATTERNSKIN_THEME = %PUBURLPATH%/%SYSTEMWEB%/PatternSkin/theme_foswiki_noframe.css
      * Set PATTERNSKIN_COLUMNS = %PUBURLPATH%/%SYSTEMWEB%/PatternSkin/column_left.css

   * Overriding styles that add upon the global and theme styles. Enabled by default but empty to prevent browsers from fetching %<nop>USERLAYOUTURL%-style URLs.
      * Set USERLAYOUTURL =
      * Set USERSTYLEURL =
      * Set USERCOLORSURL =
      * Set WEBHEADERART =
      * Set WEBHEADERBGCOLOR =
      
---+++ Troubleshooting

If you have set the SKIN setting to =pattern= and you still don't see the layout as on the <a href="%ATTACHURL%/patternskin_screenshot_full.png">screenshot</a>, a few settings in may have been disabled.

Check these [[%SYSTEMWEB%.PreferenceSettings][preference settings]] here:
   * FOSWIKI_LAYOUT_URL = %FOSWIKI_LAYOUT_URL%
   * FOSWIKI_STYLE_URL = %FOSWIKI_STYLE_URL%
   * FOSWIKI_COLORS_URL = %FOSWIKI_COLORS_URL%
   * SKIN = %SKIN%

If =FOSWIKI_LAYOUT_URL= or =FOSWIKI_STYLE_URL= don't give a value or point to non-existing files, check in %SYSTEMWEB%.DefaultPreferences and in %USERSWEB%.SitePreferences that the following preferences do exist and that they are set to on:
<pre>
   * %SYSTEMWEB%.PatternSkin settings:
      * <nop>Set FOSWIKI_LAYOUT_URL = %<nop>PUBURLPATH%/%<nop>SYSTEMWEB%/PatternSkin/layout.css
      * <nop>Set FOSWIKI_STYLE_URL = %<nop>PUBURLPATH%/%<nop>SYSTEMWEB%/PatternSkin/style.css
      * <nop>Set FOSWIKI_COLORS_URL = %<nop>PUBURLPATH%/%<nop>SYSTEMWEB%/PatternSkin/colors.css
</pre>

*NOTE:* customization of these values should be done in [[%USERSWEB%.SitePreferences]]

If this still does not work, contact the administrator who installs skins.
