3. Usage

Once the plugin is activated the theme will activate.

4. Customising

You can create your own colour scheme by editing the admin_themes.php file.

  1. Step one is to edit the andyp_additional_admin_color_schemes() function. Register your own colour theme like the three already added.
    wp_admin_css_color( 
        'your_custom_key', 
        __( 'name_of_your_theme' ),
        plugins_url( '/', __FILE__ ) . '/css/name_of_your_theme.css' ,
        [ '#242424', '#53A5E3', '#E86546' ]
    );

You can read more information on the wordpress docs: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_admin_css_color/

  1. Step two is to edit the switch_admin_scheme($result) function.
    if((strpos($site, 'mydomain.com') !== false)) {
        return 'your_custom_key';
    }

This will look up the your_custom_key you added in the previous step and load it. So define your website and which theme you want it to load.

  1. Provide your own CSS file to load in '/css/name_of_your_theme.css'. Use one of the others as a base.
