Changing the Application Skin

After you have created and uploaded a new skin, you must change the application to use this new skin to experience the new look and feel.

About this task

In addition to changing the skin experienced by your users, you can also change a skin for development without affecting the skin that is in effect.

Procedure

  1. If you are on a Legacy Content Delivery page, select Home in the breadcrumb trail.
    The Legacy Content Delivery landing page appears.
  2. In the Administration Tools pane, click Manage Application.
    The Manage Application page appears.
  3. In the left pane, click Global Config.
  4. In the right pane, click the UI Skin drop-down list and then click the skin to use for the Legacy Content Delivery user interface.
  5. Click Save.
    The application skin changes immediately for all users.
  6. Clear the document-level cache by clicking Clear Cache.
    This clears the database cache, which has stored rendered topics created when the previous skin was in effect. This ensures that your users will experience all content rendered using the newly selected skin.
