Installing Themes to Plesk

When you have finished with modifying all the necessary files, pack the directory into a ZIP archive, upload it to the server, and then install the theme as described below. If you modified the theme directly on the server, then you can pack the theme into a ZIP archive and install it on other servers when needed.

Note

If you access Plesk at the reseller level, and do not have the administrator’s access to the server over SSH or Remote Desktop, contact your hosting provider for assistance with installing the package.

To install the theme customized by the server administrator, run the following command:

plesk bin branding_theme -i -vendor admin -source <path/filename.zip>

Where <path/filename.zip> is the path to the ZIP archive with the theme. On Windows systems, you need to specify an absolute path to the file, for example: c:\tmp\custom_theme.zip.

To install the theme customized by a reseller, run the following command:

plesk bin branding_theme -i -vendor <reseller's username> -source <path/filename.zip>

Example:

plesk bin branding_theme --install -vendor "JDoe" -source /usr/local/psa/theme.zip

Custom Themes Location

Themes are installed into the following locations:

• On Windows systems: C:\Program Files\%plesk_dir%\admin\htdocs\theme-skins\<theme-name>\
• On Linux systems: /usr/local/psa/admin/htdocs/theme-skins/<theme-name>/

Where <theme-name> is the name of your custom theme.
