Hi..

I tried this approach and also the approach mentioned in below link

still unable to get the solution.

I tried the method to run a report WD_THEME n upload the theme. getting version mismatch error.

Request some one to clearly explain the step by step process to use the custom themes in ABAP WebDynpro.

Hi Thomas,

Thanks for the response.

I tried the same approach as explained in the PDF but still unable to get the theme as described in portal in WebDynpro Application

I used both WDTHEMEROOT url parameter n specified the folder name of the theme.

I also tried the Parameters mentioned in the PDF , still no changes in the screen.

The approach in this PDF clearly states that it is for when you are NOT in the NetWeaver Portal. This is not the process for editing the theme within the portal. Within the portal you should use the theme editor that is embedded within the portal. You theme the entire portal and then the WDA applications running within the portal will take on that theme.

>server metnioned above : is it portal server and port details

No this isn't the portal server. If you are running in the portal then you don't need this approach at all. The iView will automatically take on the customized portal theme as long as you have maintained the portal support package level along with the backend ABAP AS SP level.

>and what is the <application> here in the url..

Your web dynpro ABAP application.

><folderOfYourCustomTheme>---here we need to give the folder name of our application in WebDynpro ABAP

No. The MIME folder where you stored your customized theme.
