Customising the Flare HTML5 Tripane skin

ModCap

I’ve produced a full example project of how to customise the Flare HTML5 ‘Tripane’ skin.

Note: This post was originally written for the HTML5 skin in v10, which is now called the ‘Tripane’ skin in v11 onwards.

An example project with documentation can be downloaded here:
Example “Skin Mods” project (on my Google Drive)

This might be of use to anyone that needs to make modifications to the HTML5 skin which can’t be achieved using Flares’ skin editor.

The documentation shows how to:

  • Add content to the header area of the skin.
  • Add your own stylesheet to the skin, to style your own content, or change styles unavailable in the editor.
  • Move elements of the skin, such as the search box.

All details are in the linked project above, it should answer most questions.
