MyBB Community Forums

I've just downloaded MYBB and would like to change many aspects like colors, add a custom logo etc. Does all of that require custom css and coding skills? Or is there a color picker type simpler interface? 

It looks like every change requires additional or altered code. Is this correct? In which case MYBB may not be the best choice for me as my code skills are basically nill.

Any help appreciated.

Or perhaps a simple tutorial for the less skilled?

Admin CP -> Templates & Styles -> Themes -> Default -> global.css

From here throughout the code you can change colors of any elements you like.

THANK YOU - looks pretty daunting but I'm in for now.

Its not too bad once you get the hang of it, just play around with it and you'll learn as you go. If you stumble upon questions regarding CSS/HTML or other w3Schools is a LOVELY learning tool.

I would advise making a new theme to play with first. You don't want to go making changes in the Default theme.

A couple of old threads but will give you the basics:

By creating your own theme you can play without causing yourself problems with the default.

VERY helpful - Thank you.

No coding skill is required to add a custom logo. You can use an FTP client to do it.

Changing colour and other aspects, there need to be some code changes. Mostly CSS.
