Basic interface settings can be configured through the control panel.
The Look and Feel menu allows to set
skins and colors,
images and icons, and
some interface texts.
Advanced interface customization is what goes beyond the scope of
the Control Panel settings. It is performed on the H-Sphere CP server
by designers and programmers with administrative rights, in order to create or modify
H-Sphere interface elements.
Packaging, introduced in v.2.4, allows to create installable plugins, or packages.
This is a way to share custom elements between H-Sphere installations.
Third parties can use it to develop and distribute plugins that add new or
extend/override standard H-Sphere functionalities. Documentation on building
packages is introduced in our
Developer Guide.
