In Redmine version 6.0.0, the current theme appears to be broken.

In Redmine version 6.0.0, the current theme appears to be broken.

[Shanti9]

Yes, same here! I have returned to 5.1.4 until this is resolved. Is there a plan to make PurpleMine compatible with Redmine 6?

[Grovkillen]

Yeah, same for me. I guess the move from

-/public/themes/*
-!/public/themes/alternate
-!/public/themes/classic
-!/public/themes/README

to

+/app/assets/themes/*
+!/app/assets/themes/alternate
+!/app/assets/themes/classic
+!/app/assets/themes/README

Really messed things up. I tried to just change the path in the themes application.css file but it's not pointing to the correct path once deployed.

https://www.redmine.org/issues/39111

[Grovkillen]

I got it somewhat to work by adding this to my nginx.config file:

# Needed MIME-types
types {
	text/css css;
	application/javascript js;
}

# CSS files
location ~ ^/assets/themes/(.+?)/(.+?)\.css$ {
	alias /usr/share/redmine/themes/$1/stylesheets/$2.css;
	access_log off;
	expires max;
}

# JavaScript files
location ~ ^/assets/themes/(.+?)/(.+?)\.js$ {
	alias /usr/share/redmine/themes/$1/javascripts/$2.js;
	access_log off;
	expires max;
}

# favicon files
location ~ ^/assets/themes/(.+?)/favicon.ico$ {
	alias /usr/share/redmine/themes/$1/favicon/favicon.ico;
	access_log off;
	expires max;
}

# font files
location ~ ^/assets/themes/fonts/(.+?)\.([^?]+?)$ {
	alias /usr/share/redmine/themes/fonts/$1.$2;
	access_log off;
	expires max;
}

# images files
location ~ ^/assets/themes/(.+?)/images/(.+?)\.(.+?)$ {
	alias /usr/share/redmine/themes/$1/images/$2.$3;
	access_log off;
	expires max;
}

# svg files
location ~ ^/assets/themes/(.+?)/svg/(.+?)\.(.+?)$ {
	alias /usr/share/redmine/themes/$1/svg/$2.$3;
	access_log off;
	expires max;
}

And moved all the code from application.css into a theme.css file. All the default css code from the Redmine application.css file copied to a file I named default.css. The new application.css file have this inside:

@import url(./default.css);
@import url(./theme.css);

And lastly I moved the fonts folder directly under the themes folder.

[Shanti9]

That's a great hack @Grovkillen! But was it not simpler to just redistribute Purplemine assets so that file paths accommodate to Redmine 6 requirements? As not everyone has access or convenience of editing nginx conf...

[Grovkillen]

Yeah, I just wanted to get my installation working but I do agree that the Redmine team need to think about the way they intend this new structure.

[BFjimmy]

Just to add. The new Redmine interface uses SVG files for these elements. I had to remove them by adding this to the theme file:

a > svg,
span > svg,
legend > svg {
    display: none;
}

[BFjimmy]

Also added these:

a > svg,
span > svg,
legend > svg,
.icon > svg,
div > svg {
  display: none;
}

This is my proxy config, running redmine on sub uri .../redmine on docker. It also needs further tuning like config.ru settings.

Not even the purple mine theme is looking as shown above but also the additional themes are broken. I told that to the redmine team before v6 came out but they have not change it, yet.

# the regex logic: after either /javascripts/ or /stylesheets/ find the suffixes we want, followed by one or more numbers 0-9
# This works because the files we want to cache always appear after one of those 2 directories:  but not the files we want to ignore
# /journals/edit/24174.js  and /uploads.js?attachment_id=1&filename=my-file-to-upload.png

[Grovkillen]

Yes, the Redmine team seems a bit off regarding this. But on the other hand, I haven't found any reports about it. And also, the sub-uri integration isn't very straight forward as you mention @fishermans

[Grovkillen]

I've found an issue report here: https://www.redmine.org/issues/41754

[Plinsboorg]

Hi all,
I'm not a programmer myself, but I can ask for external help.
But first I need to understand where the problem of these big icons comes from.
Is this something that can be fixed by modifying the theme repo itself?
Or is it not possible, and redmine maintainers need to change something on their end first?

The reason is that some data are not found by the browser. If you hit F12 in Chrome, you will see that some js / css files are not found. The location for themes and the way how it is handled has changed in v6.

As @Grovkillen pointed out there is an issue logged. I did not try it again since I am still on v5.1.

Maybe it needs some further modifications to your Apache / nginx configuration if your instance is behind a proxy. I am using nginx and added some lines (see above) to fix the missing data.

In short, if all data are found by the browser the icon will appear in the expected size.

[Grovkillen]

6.0.2 should fix this but I haven't tried it myself since I fixed it by adding a custom CSS file. Den fre 3 jan. 2025 21:11fishermans ***@***.***> skrev:

The patch attached to this ticket is only adding some information to the documentation.

[Plinsboorg]

I just run Redmine 6.0.2.stable in docker and I can still see this issue with PurpleMine theme.
But I only tested on localhost.

Same pb (with Apache2) ...
