How does the Theme Driver work?
The Theme Driver allows Administrative Users to choose the criteria with which the new theme will be displayed. Themes for users can be driven by their Company, Department, Location, or Business Unit. It may make sense for an organization to have a different theme for users depending on their Location attribute, in which case you can have custom themes for each Location.
To change the Theme Driver, navigate to Organization Management through the Menu icon.

If (Note: Default Logo and Mobile Logo are the images added in your system through Content Revision. For instructions on adding images in your system, please click here)
If these fields are left empty, the default theme, default logo and mobile logo defined in Organization Management is considered. Note: An attribute that has multiple 'parent' nodes can inherit their themes as well. If theme/logo is not specified in the Revision Attribute and the parent node has them defined, then the attribute will inherit theme/logo from their parent nodes. In the above example, the Quality Assurance attribute can have the theme that was applied to Software Development and the ROOT node if it is not defined in the Revision Attributes.
If any of the theme, logo and mobile logo are not defined in the whole hierarchy of the attributes (attribute and parent nodes), then they are picked up from organization the Organization Management. For instance, if a theme is defined for a specific company attribute and logo is not defined, and then the invitation is created choosing that company attribute, the candidate's process picks up uses the theme defined in the Attribute Revision and logo from the Organization Management.
