When migrating themes that were developed in an earlier version,
you need to be aware of general guidelines, differences, and known issues.
- Migrated themes should be applied to the same pages that they were designed
for in the earlier version.
- Migrated themes should be used with the same skins as in the earlier version.
Some skins in the current version take advantage of functions that were not
available in the earlier version.
- In V5.x, themes were identified as either "administration" or "non-administration"
themes. Using the Page Properties portlet, you could
assign administration themes only to administration pages, and non-administration
themes to non-administration pages. This restriction has been removed in the
current version – themes are designed to work on all pages. As a result, you
need to either manually assign migrated themes to the appropriate pages or
update the migrated themes to support navigation across all pages.
