Hello Gordon,

Thank you for this wishlist item. It makes sense to me that when an
institution allows users to choose their own themes that the groups
should also have this power and set a default look and feel for their
group.

Since groups are not necessarily bound to an institution but rather just
sit on the site level it might get tricky for Mahara sites that have
multiple institutions as some may not want their groups to look
different from the brand. So we'd have to think as well whether we would
need to make changes to the groups infrastructure around that or if we
could leave that for a later stage and just implement a site setting
which would allow groups to choose their default theme.

Cheers
Kristina

Title:
  group wide theme

Status in Mahara:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hi,
  As a feature enhancement it would be useful if there was an option in group admin settings to specify a theme for all pages within the group. This is really important for sites where the default institutional theme doesn't work well with the content of a specific group, but currently the only way to deal with that is to edit every page manually to apply the theme - having to change 20-30 pages (or more) is time consuming - not to mention having to remember to make the change for every new page, so being able to set a default theme at a group level would be a logical improvement.

  In anticipation of the question - yes I think it would be fine to
  override this default manually on a per-page basis later, but being
  able to set all pages to a consistent look from the group admin
  settings would be extremely useful.

  Regards, Gordon.
