Ability to set Theme on Published apps removed?

110 — Thu, 16 May 2024 12:58:32 GMT

I believe I used to be able to change the theme on Published apps, but now it appears the little gear that enabled this in the UI has moved.

This was a really useful feature, as I have themes to make it clear when users might be looking at a source / staging app bs a published app , or for UAT versions Published.

Is there a global setting to re-enable this feature?

Staging App

Published App

Hi,

As far as I know, it's not possible without using the APIs.

Kind regards

Somewhat frustrating to hear, it was a handy feature out the box, especially since the search page changed and the colour coded Spaces icons have been omitted from the results list.

It was a quick way to visually indicate to users which version they were on, if they searched and inadvertently loaded the UAT version.

For anyone searching this - looks like it was something simple.

So if you 'own' the app, and it's published , you can change, but you can't apply to other apps that you don't 'own'

For the apps I have under my username in Staging / Published, I can still edit the theme.

Odd that I don't ( as admin ) have access to change others though.

These UI options appear to have disappeared completely in the latest UI revamp - while I can set thumb for the app, I don't appear to have the ability to set theme / title etc any longer.

Is this a feature that needs re-enabling again to see?

While it's handy to be able to set reload schedule etc from within the app now, the loss of the easy-access theme / logo / chart behaviour options is a bit baffling.
