All of our themes come with at least one extension, which is used to configure colours and features.
Here we use our Milk theme's flightdeck extension as an example
Download the theme files
Extract to your desktop
Open the folder corresponding to the phpBB version you're using
Open folder 2. Extension Files
Using a file manager, upload ext/planetstyles.zip to yourforum.com/ext/
Extract it in that location. Your file tree should look like this:
Note: Your forum's "ext" folder should contain a "planetstyles" folder, which contains a "flightdeck" folder. The full file path you should be able to see is:
yourforum.com/ext/planetstyles/flightdeck/
Delete "planetstyles.zip" from your file system
Navigate to ACP (Admin Control Panel) → "Customise" (tab)
In the left sidebar, click "Manage extensions"
In the table, below "Disabled extensions", locate: PlanetStyles Flight Deck
Click "Enable"
Confirm
The control panel can now be accessed in ACP → "Extensions" (tab)
