Theme¶
Depending on if you use the old deprecated theme azure or the new standard theme flow in OXID eShop 4.10 / 5.3, you have to take different actions.
Theme azure¶
If you use or extend the deprecated theme azure in OXID eShop 4.10 / 5.3, we recommend to use or extend the new standard theme flow instead.
If you want to use still the theme azure, you have to include azure first in OXID eShop 6 like described in the azure installation instructions as it is not delivered by default any more. There is an version of the flow theme compatible to OXID eShop 4.10 / 5.3 and a version compatible to OXID eShop 6 like described here.
If you extended the azure theme with a custom theme, you have to update your custom theme as described in the section Updating a custom theme. Please also update your modules accordingly.
Theme flow¶
If you already use the theme flow in OXID eShop 4.10 / 5.3, you don’t have to do anything. The flow theme is delivered
by default with OXID eShop 6.
There is an OXID eShop 6 compatible version of the flow theme which has some differences to the version delivered in OXID eShop 4.10 / 5.3 like described here.
If you extended the flow theme in OXID eShop 4.10 / 5.3 you have to check the differences between the OXID eShop 4.10 / 5.3 compatible flow version and the OXID eShop 6 compatible flow version. Afterwards, update your custom theme as described in the section Updating a custom theme. Please also update your modules accordingly.
Updating a custom theme¶
In order to use your custom theme (name yourThemeName in this example) from OXID eShop 4.10 / 5.3 in OXID eShop 6,
copy the folders

Afterwards you have to adapt your theme to the new version of its parent theme. Also copy
the file favicon.ico from the shops root folder if you modified it.
