Editing Property List Files

Every theme has a theme.plist file, which controls: ÂÂ The name of the theme

ÂÂ Whether the theme is publicly available ÂÂ The height and width of the banner

ÂÂ Sidebar properties such as the name, type and number of links, and sort order

After making changes to the theme.plist file, you must restart the web service or restart the server. Because this can disrupt users, you should create, edit, and test themes on a test computer and then copy them over to the server.

About Property List Editor

Property List Editor is a specialized editor for property list files.

In order to edit a theme.plist file using Property List Editor, you must copy it to your Documents folder. When you finish editing the theme.plist file, you must copy it back to /Library/Application Support/Apple/WikiServer/Themes/theme_name.wikitheme/.

Property List Editor is located on the Mac OS X Server v10.5 Administration Tools CD, in /Utilities/. You can run it from the CD or copy it to a different location.
