How to Use Themes in Upvio
Themes allow you to create a branded client experience by customizing colors, typography, border styles, and other visual elements across your client-facing portals.
Whether you're creating a theme from scratch or using your existing brand assets, this guide explains how to create, customize, preview, and activate a theme in Upvio.
Method 1: Creating a new theme from scratch

- Go to Settings.
- Select Account.
- Click Themes.
- Open an existing theme or click Create Theme to start a new one.
- Configure your theme settings.
- Click Save when you're finished.
Your new theme will appear in your Themes library, where you can access and edit it at any time.
Method 2: Uploading an image or using brand presets
Want to get started quickly? Upvio offers two ways to create a visual foundation for your theme without configuring every color manually.
Option 1: Use a preset

- Select Load Preset.
- Choose a professionally designed theme as your starting point.
