How to change the default Drupal theme?

The default Drupal installation comes with several themes, which could be changed from your administration area. Log in as an administrator, click on Administer -> Site building -> Themes and choose which theme you want to use for your website.

How to install new Drupal themes?

Drupal keeps its skins in the themes subfolder. To install additional themes, you can get the archived theme from the SiteGround Drupal themes gallery and extract the files to the 'themes' subfolder. This can be done through cPanel -> File Manager.

• Download the theme to your PC.
• Open your CPanel, and click on the File Manager icon.
• Using the File Manager, please navigate to your Drupal installation directory. Open the themes folder and click on [Upload file(s)].
• Now click [Browse]: you will be presented with a filelist from your local PC. Find the theme you have just downloaded (the filename should end with .tar.gz or .zip) and double-click it.
• Click the [Upload] button and wait for a minute until the theme is uploaded. Click on the newly uploaded tar.gz file and choose extract file contents.

Well done! You have successfully uploaded the new theme on your Drupal system. You should now be able to see the theme at your Drupal Administration Area -> Administer -> Site building -> Themes.
