Hi,

I've created several fully-featured themes for TW5. I had to create these 
each in different copies of TW5, though, because I've installed them 
through the method mentioned on the main TW site, where you add 
*$:/tags/Stylesheet* as a tag to the tiddler containing the CSS definitions.

How can I migrate these themes to being accessible as choices in the 
configuration menu, like the vanilla theme? 

(Note that these themes I've created don't completely rewrite the layout 
and do use vanilla as a base, so that would have to be taken into 
consideration.)

I did create palettes for these themes, but those are already accessible 
via the configuration menu.

Before I do this, I just wanted to make sure that what I'm doing would be 
correct. This is my thought for how this could be done:

   1. Clone the *$:/themes/tiddlywiki/vanilla* tiddler, which contains all 
   the shadow tiddlers for the vanilla theme. 
   2. Rename the tiddler and all of the contained shadow tiddlers to 
   preserve this version of the vanilla theme, relative to the themes I've 
   designed to use it as a base.
   3. Add my stylesheet to the end as a shadow tiddler entry, along with 
   the relevant author, title, etc., data.
   4. Rename the cloned *$:/themes/tiddlywiki/vanilla* tiddler something 
   relevant to the theme, change the description in the data entry areas at 
   the bottom of the tiddler and add my name as one of the authors.

Would this work? I just wanted to make sure that I'm not missing anything 
before I do this. Is there a better way than what I'm thinking? Or, is this 
okay?


Thank you for any guidance you can provide. I am not sure if I will release 
these themes for others to use, but I was thinking of it and doing this 
would be a necessary step before releasing it for others to use.


Kind regards,

Hiru
