# Applying a design theme to your partner portal

Themes let you restyle your affiliate partner portal in one click. Instead of adjusting colors, fonts, and layout individually, you can pick a professionally designed starting point and fine-tune from there.

***

## What is a theme?

A theme is a curated bundle of design settings: colors, fonts, layout, corner style, navigation style, and the login/signup sidebar. Applying one updates all of those settings at once so your portal instantly gets a cohesive look.

Themes are a starting point: after applying one, you can still adjust any individual setting in the other Live Designer tabs.

## How to apply a theme

1. Go to Partner portal → **Edit Design** (Live Designer). <img src="https://mintcdn.com/partnero/Pnr3mkJEoUmefJLN/images/articles/applying-a-design-theme-to-your-partner-portal/9fc94fe8.webp?fit=max&auto=format&n=Pnr3mkJEoUmefJLN&q=85&s=cfc895cd60caeb98a55f9c9fd53f2a60" alt="" width="2876" height="1510" data-path="images/articles/applying-a-design-theme-to-your-partner-portal/9fc94fe8.webp" />
2. Select the **Themes** tab. <img src="https://mintcdn.com/partnero/Pnr3mkJEoUmefJLN/images/articles/applying-a-design-theme-to-your-partner-portal/24075d50.webp?fit=max&auto=format&n=Pnr3mkJEoUmefJLN&q=85&s=360ce464d194cdab64691b3efe16d06f" alt="" width="2870" height="1514" data-path="images/articles/applying-a-design-theme-to-your-partner-portal/24075d50.webp" />
3. Browse the theme library and click a theme to apply it.

4. Optionally, fine-tune colors, fonts, or layout in the Branding, Colors, and Layout tabs.
5. Click **Save** to publish your changes.

> Changes are only visible to your partners after you click Save. Until then, you're free to preview and switch between themes.
