# Theme Settings Overview

https://docs.wisecp.com/es/theme-settings-overview

Theme/Customization is where you manage your site's visual identity: the active theme, logos, homepage layout, page backgrounds, and admin panel look, all from one set of tabs.

## Opening the Screen

Open **Settings**, then select **Theme/Customization**. The screen also opens directly at:

`{admin}/settings/theme`

Each tab below has its own address, so you can bookmark or share a link straight to it: add `?group=logo`, `?group=theme`, or `?group=home` to the address above.

## What Is on the Screen

A row of tabs sits at the top of the page:

- **Logo/Branding** — the logos and brand colors used on the website, client area, invoices, and (with a Whitelabel package) the admin panel.
- **Manage Theme** — the gallery of installed themes and the store of premium themes you can buy.
- **Home** — the sections shown on your homepage, one set per language.
- **Backgrounds** — the header background images used across your page types.
- **Advanced** — maintenance mode, the admin panel font, and a few page-layout switches.

Home and Backgrounds only appear if your admin account holds the matching privilege (see below); Logo/Branding, Manage Theme, and Advanced are always shown.

Opening an installed theme's **Settings** button takes you to that theme's own configuration page, with its own settings form and text editor. That page is separate from the tabs described here.

## Tasks

### Switching Between Areas

Click a tab to open its content. The page address updates to match, so refreshing the page or sharing the link returns to the same tab.

## Things to Watch

> **Some Tabs Need Their Own Permission**
> 
> Home and Backgrounds stay hidden for an admin account that lacks the matching privilege, even when Logo/Branding and Manage Theme are visible.

> **HTML in Popup Content and Announcement Text**
> 
> A theme's Popup Content and Announcement Text fields accept HTML and Smarty tags. Headings, lists, buttons, images and YouTube, Vimeo or Google Maps frames are kept. Script, form and event-handler markup is removed when you save, and again when the page is shown.

## Required Privileges

- **SETTINGS_THEME_CONFIGURE** — required to open this screen, and covers Logo/Branding, Manage Theme, and Advanced.
- **SETTINGS_HOME_CONFIGURE** — required to see and use the Home tab.
- **SETTINGS_BACKGROUNDS_CONFIGURE** — required to see and use the Backgrounds tab.
