Theme location

In the standard Moodle distribution, all themes are placed in the theme/ directory of moodle. However, it is possible to use a different location for themes with version 1.7.

Changing theme Location

Starting from Moodle 1.7, the location of themes may be altered, using the variables $CFG->themewww and $CFG->themedir

If you wish to place themes in a subdirectory called 'my_moodle_themes', your config.php might look like this:

$CFG->wwwroot   = 'http://my.moodle.site.edu';
$CFG->dirroot   = '/var/www/my.moodle.site.edu/public_html';
$CFG->themewww  = $CFG->wwwroot . '/my_moodle_themes';
$CFG->themedir  = $CFG->dirroot . '/my_moodle_themes';
