Maheshwari,
After changing the files have you executed loading the data to read in
the content of the Theme.xml to the database?
>./gradlew "ofbiz --load-data readers=demo"
I'm not 100% sure if this is still necessary.

Hi,
I have a newly created ftl file(NavSidebar.ftl) which I have to render onto
the page.
so far I have done this,
1) have created a plugin for the new theme called "xerusTheme"
plugins/xerusTheme/data/XerusThemeDemoData.xml
<entity-engine-xml>
<VisualTheme visualThemeId="XERUS_THEME" visualThemeSetId="BACKOFFICE"
description="xerus theme"/>
</entity-engine-xml>
2) plugins/xerusTheme/widget/Theme.xml has this
<theme name="xerus-theme"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="
http://ofbiz.apache.org/dtds/widget-theme.xsd";>
<visual-themes>
<visual-theme id="XERUS_THEME" display-name="Xerus Theme">
<description> theme </description>
<screenshot location="/xerustheme/screenshot1.png"/>
</visual-theme>
</visual-themes>
<extends location="component://common-theme/widget/Theme.xml"/>
<templates>
<template name="screen" type="html" content-type="UTF-8"
encoding="none" encoder="html" compress="false">
<template-file widget="form" location="component://xerus-
theme/template/macro/HtmlFormMacroLibrary.ftl"/>
</template>
</templates>
<theme-properties>
<!--javascript lib-->
<property name="VT_HDR_JAVASCRIPT['add']"
value="/tomahawk/dropdown.js"/>
<!--Css style-->
<property name="VT_STYLESHEET['add']"

<!--template location-->
<property name="VT_HDR_TMPLT_LOC"
value="component://xerusTheme/template/Header.ftl"/>
<property name="VT_SIDEBAR_TMPLT_LOC['add']"
value="component://xerusTheme/template/NavSidebar.ftl"/> =>have tried
without ['add'] also
<property name="VT_FTR_TMPLT_LOC"
value="component://xerusTheme/template/Footer.ftl"/>
<property name="VT_MSG_TMPLT_LOC" value="component://common-
theme/template/includes/Messages.ftl"/>
</theme-properties>
</theme>
3) added macro
plugins/xerusTheme/templates/macro/HTMLFormMacroLibrary.ftl
<#include
"component://common-theme/template/macro/HtmlFormMacroLibrary.ftl"/>
<#macro renderDisplayField type imageLocation idName description title
class alert inPlaceEditorUrl="" inPlaceEditorParams="">
<#if description?has_content>
*###*${description?replace("\n", "<br />")}**<#t/>
<#else>
*# #*<#t/>
</#if>
</#macro>

I'm not getting what I'm missing.
all my ftl files are in plugins/xerusTheme/template/ =>referThisImage
<https://www.canva.com/design/DAEvH7oAclM/AY2mO6OkWGuEa28GdSrBGA/edit>

I have made an entry in below mentioned files for NavSidebar.ftl
