Building new theme in confluence

[Ivo Rodrigues]

Hello all,

I was trying to build a new theme to my company and when searching in the documentation a website is reference that was supposed to help on it.

But when i access to that i see the following message:

"The Theme API was built for a UI that Confluence has recently moved away from, and doesn't support the new UI. Based on Theme API usage to date, we are evaluating whether Theme API will support the new UI."

https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/create-a-confluence-theme/

Does anyone knows any other way to build themes or it is not possible anymore.

Thank you in advance.

Ivo

Hello @Ivo Rodrigues !

You are correct, the creation of themes for Confluence Cloud currently not available.

There are, however, some theming add-ons that can assist customers who want to customize Confluence:

You can check them here:

• [Evaluator Resources Support] Confluence: Theme

Moving back into the "create a theme" territory, we can see that there is a deeper conversation about the creation of themes happening in our Sister Community, the Developer Community! You can check it here:

[Atlassian Developer Community] Is creating a Theme for Confluence Cloud still possible?

The developer community is the go-to place for development questions all-things Atlassian!

Regarding the addons that you recommended, those are all paid.  I understand the need to monetize, but does Atlassian really think $60 per year is reasonable for someone who just wants their default table headers in confluence to be a different color?

If you're looking to make the content available publically, you could try my team's app Scroll Viewport. You can customize many aspects of the theme to fit your brand.

Here's an example: https://k15t.scrollhelp.site/scroll-viewport/
