SharePoint Color Palette and Themes Tool

The SharePoint Color Palette and Themes Tool allows you to easily manage SharePoint themes on your site. To use the tool, simply open ShortPoint's modern Theme builder and navigate to General Settings > Color Palette > Color Theme Tool. In this article we will go through how to create, update and delete a SharePoint theme using the Themes tool.



Creating a theme


Default theme

By default when you publish color customization in Modern theme builder without creating a theme, a new theme called ShortPoint will be created and applied on your site. This ShortPoint theme will always contain your color customization until you create a new theme.



New theme

To create a new SharePoint theme, please follow these steps:


1. Make sure you have made all your color customization

2. Go to General Settings > Color Palette > Color Theme Tool

3. Click on the dropdown

4. Type in the name of the theme you wish to create

5. Click on the option with the name of your theme in the dropdown

6. Click Create new

7. That's all, your SharePoint theme has been created


Updating a theme

You can update an existing theme by following these simple steps:


1. Go to General Settings > Color Palette > Color Theme Tool

2. From the dropdown, select the theme you wish to update

3. Go back to any color category and make your color changes

4. Go back to the Color Theme Tool section

5. Click Update

6. That's all, your existing is updated


Deleting a theme

Deleting an existing theme is equally straightforward. Please follow these simple steps:


1. Go to General Settings > Color Palette > Color Theme Tool

2. From the dropdown, select the theme you wish to delete

3. Click Delete

4. The theme you have selected should already be deleted now.
