An issue with custom themes and communities

I have had a PMR open for some time relating to a bit of a known issue with Custom themes and Connections communities.

There was an issue where you would create a custom theme :

commTheme1

In my case I also customised the coloured community themes also:

banner

commTheme2

When clicking on forums, blogs etc the theme was stripped out displaying:

commTheme3

It appears there was a step missing from the wiki!!

Step 1.d – d. Remove the file theme.css from the corporateTheme directory

In my case I had based my custom theme on the default theme and had used it as the default Community theme (which has no theme.css), so all communities with the default theme appeared correctly.

BUT, I had also lightly customised the coloured community themes – removing (or renaming) the theme.css from each coloured theme has resolved the issue.

Thank you mr Kieran Reid for investigating and confirming this was the issue.
