Starting in cPanel & WHM v64, we will be shipping the Light and Dark styles within the product. Please report issues or changes you would like to see by contacting our technical support.<\/div>\n

The Paper Lantern theme has come a long way since I last wrote about customizing the cPanel interface<\/a>. As of this date, the instructions are still valid with a few minor adjustments. The theme continues to evolve and with each improvement, the code must also be updated for any custom styles that you may have already created.<\/p>\n

With that said, I have created a new template, called cP Starter that allows you to modify the appearance of the cPanel interface and kickstart your own custom style. cP Starter is a base style intended for designers, developers, server admins, resellers, and\/or anyone who isn\u2019t afraid to code. Currently, there are two interfaces available at your disposal: Light and Dark. These are both professional, yet minimalistic approaches that can be used as is or adapted to match your company\u2019s branding and logo.<\/p>\n

Beta Blues<\/h2>\n

cP Starter is a work in progress which we will continue to update and refine over time, so don\u2019t be surprised if you encounter any bugs we may have missed. You can expect both cP Starter Light and Dark to be packaged and shipped with cPanel & WHM in future releases, along with the possibility of few additional style options. By then, we should have all of the latest changes completed, including bug fixes and enhancements. So if you’re feeling a bit adventurous and would like to get a head start, let’s get right to it.<\/p>\n

Custom Style Installation<\/h2>\n

First, you\u2019ll want to identify the type of role that best suits your needs in order to complete the installation. Secondly, cP Starter is only compatible to cPanel & WHM 56 or later<\/strong>. For demonstration purpose, the folder \u201ccP_Starter_Light\u201d will be used to guide the setup process.<\/p>\n
