This is an adaptation for Tiki CMS of Andreas Viklund's freely released Andreas09 design. The theme uses luci's lite css layout method and so is source-ordered and table-free. Going beyond the great design of the original, this adaptation has a center content column that widens to accomodate large images, tables, etc. As with all Tiki themes, one-, two-, and three-column layouts are possible.

The page background and menu hover images can be easily changed. Alternative images are included.

After delays getting things to work properly with Internet Explorer 7, the theme files are finally finished and can be downloaded here. Please report any problems in the themes.tikiwiki.org forum.

A new theme — Twist — has been contributed by gg and can be downloaded now. The Twist theme visually floats the Tiki pages on a dark blue background, and has custom graphics for standard menus. (Since themes.tw.o normally uses PHP Layers menus in the left column, please visit the Twist and Site Identity demo pages to see the Twist menu style.)

It's taken a lot longer than expected, but the Zuka theme can now be downloaded from the Zuka file gallery at themes.tw.o. No registration or log-in is needed to download the files. (Update 2: Zuka_v1.1 is now available. It has better IE7 compatibility and includes the earlier fixes and updates.)

Zuka uses a source-ordered, no-tables, liquid layout based on luci's lite layout, similar to what is used by the simple.css Tiki theme.

The theme archive includes information about installation and customizing. Also see themes.tw.o/Zuka. The InterTiki user authorization system has been working off and on. If there are any questions or problems to report about Zuka installation and use, and if it isn't possible to log in here, please use the tw.o forum. The theme is released under the LGPL license and will soon be committed to Tiki CVS.

Undertaken to demonstrate the flexibility of Tiki CMS/Groupware page layout, the Tikipedia theme uses slightly modified Tiki template files, CSS, and new wiki plugins to emulate the well-known Mediawiki Monobook style. The theme package can be downloaded now from the New Themes gallery. Tikipedia_v1.0 has been tested with Tiki 1.9.2 and just-released 1.9.3.1.

Just in time for the approaching winter (OK, in the Southern Hemisphere), the Snow theme for Tiki CMS is available for downloading. This is a full-width, three-column design with snowflake-pattern page backgrounds, module boxes, etc. A Flash .fla file is included for making a logo with a snowfall effect.

The Kubrick theme, originally created for WordPress and ported as GPLed software to nearly 30 CMS and blog scripts, is now available for Tiki. This clean and simple design has been very popular especially with bloggers. For Tiki, Kubrick can expand horizontally to accomodate large gallery images, tables, and other wide content.

This is a Tiki adaptation of the Planetfall theme originally done by rhuk for the Mambo CMS (now Joomla). This theme won mamboportal.com's theme competition and was included as a default style for Mambo. Planetfall is released under the GPL license. See Planetfall for more information.

To showcase the page layout and style flexibility of Tiki CMS, the themes.tikiwiki.org site has been created to offer theme demos, discussions and downloads. Tiki users are encouraged to contribute their creations, and are welcomed to the site to get advice or to help others with problems.
