# How to set new theme as default

After installing your theme, you might want to set it to default, and / or force users onto the new theme.

### Setting theme to default

1. Browse to: ACP (Admin Control Panel) → "General" (tab)
2. In the left sidebar, click "Board settings"
3. Scroll down to "Board style"
4. Set "Default style" to your preferred theme
5. Submit

### Force users onto new theme

If you have multiple styles installed, your users will remain on their currently-selected theme, even after setting a new default. 

To overcome this (if you want to), it is necessary to force users onto the new theme.

1. Browse to: ACP (Admin Control Panel) → "General" (tab)
2. In the left sidebar, click "Board settings"
3. Scroll down to "Board style"
4. Set "Override user style" to "Yes"
5. Submit

{% hint style="info" %}
If you only wanted to force your new users onto the new theme, but still want to let them switch to a different theme after, you can disable this option again afterwards.
{% endhint %}
