How to change your Themes in Prism Launcher

Themes can help you spice up your launcher appearance.

Some themes are only on discord for now, but we will try to transfer them to our repository.

Themes Downloads

Here are the instructions to get your themes & icons up and working.

Make sure you are using Prism Launcher 6.0 or later

Download a theme above and copy the zip file to your Themes Directory.
- Open your local Prism Launcher Themes folder:
  - on Windows: %appdata%\PrismLauncher\themes
  - on Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/PrismLauncher/themes
  - on Linux: ~/.local/share/PrismLauncher/themes
  - on Flatpak: ~/.var/app/org.prismlauncher.PrismLauncher/data/PrismLauncher/themes
Unzip the newly downloaded theme in the themes folder.
Restart Prism Launcher, then open the global settings. In the Launcher section, click the User Interface tab, and under Colors (make sure you're changing Colors and not Icons), choose the newly added theme. Click the Close button, and enjoy your fresh new Prism Launcher.

Instructions to install themes from Discord are located in the #launcher-themes discord channel.

Download a Icons pack above and copy the zip file to your Prism Launcher Directory
- Open your local Prism Launcher Directory:
  - on Windows: %appdata%\PrismLauncher
  - on Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/PrismLauncher
  - on Linux: ~/.local/share/PrismLauncher
  - on Flatpak: ~/.var/app/org.prismlauncher.PrismLauncher/data/PrismLauncher
Extract the contents of the zip into the iconthemes folder (if the folder doesn't exist do this next step).
- In the PrismLauncher folder, create a new folder named iconthemes (you should only have to do this once).
Restart Prism Launcher, then open the global settings. In the Launcher section, click the User Interface tab, and under Icons (make sure you're changing Icons and not Colors), choose the Custom icons. Click the Close button, and enjoy your new icons.

Fork the PrismLauncher/Themes repository.
Create a folder in the themes folder named after your theme name (Example: Rainbow-Cake).
- In this newly created folder add files named README.md, theme.json, themeStyle.css and theme.json.license.
  - In theme.json.license add the text below, and replace "Year" with the current year, replace "Theme Owner" with the theme creator nickname, "License name" with the license of your theme.
```
SPDX-FileCopyrightText: "Year" "Theme owner"

SPDX-License-Identifier: "License SPDX Identifier"
```
  - (Note: theme.json and themeStyle.css are the files that contain your theme.)
  - Format your README.md just like this Template Readme and replace every text between a " like "This" with their respective use.
- Add a screenshot of your theme and rename it to preview.png.
  - Then create a file named preview.png.license and add the text below, and replace "Year" and Screenshot owner" with their respective use.
```
SPDX-FileCopyrightText: "Year" "Screenshot owner"

SPDX-License-Identifier: CC0-1.0
```
