Manage theme versions
📝 Note: If the AppDirect logo appears in the upper-left corner of the page, when Manage > Marketplace appears in this topic, click the grid icon > Switch to | Store, instead.
You can view themes and theme versions that were uploaded to the Theme Manager at Manage > Marketplace > Theme Manager. You can organize and maintain your different themes on the Theme Manager page. For example, you can upload multiple versions of a theme to modify it without losing changes, or restore a previous version of a theme if required, for example if you are unsatisfied with the current version. Versions of a theme only appear in the My Themes section because they belong to parent themes.
To upload a theme version
- Go to Manage > Marketplace > Theme Manager. The Theme Manager page opens.
- In the My Themes section, click the gear icon in the row of your theme.

file. The maximum file size is 50MB. - Click Upload. A confirmation message appears. The following events occur:

- A version of the previous theme is automatically created and included in the History link. It is renamed as Ver_1 or Ver_{number}, depending on how many other versions of the theme already exist.
