Themes determine the look of your sites. Choose a pre-set theme, or apply your organisation’s branding by building your own custom theme. By applying different themes to each of your sites, a knowledge base and an intranet can have different looks. You can also create themes for special occasions, like a holiday theme that you temporarily add to your intranet.
