E-Recruiting EHP4 WebDynpro Abap theme theme_url

[Former Member]

Hallo there,

as I read in other threads I copied the standard theme to a custom theme and set the parameter theme_url in spro to my custom theme path.

But it won't work directly. If I'm doing URL-Escaping sap-theme = <custom-path> it works fine, but I want it directly with the path as I've done it before in ehp1 and the bspthemeroot.

Can anyone help me?

Thx will be regarded

Thank you Christine,

yes it works with url escaping sap-theme.

But my question is how can I always use that custom theme without an appending url in every web Dynpro. Because of that i took the url_parameter theme_url /SAP/PUBLIC/BC/UR/NW5/FTHEMES/z_custom_theme in spro customizing .

But the system ignores that parameter and only reacts when I add the themepath.

Hello Holger,

unfortunately for web dynpro there is currently no similar solution for globally setting the style as it was in bsp with the themeroot table.

The SPRO customizing for setting the theme link you found just effects "indirect called" web dynpro applications. If you link an e-recruiting web dynpro application to your company career page you have to add the url parameter mentioned in a post above otherwise you will always get the standard theme. If this application calls another one it uses the customized theme by automatically including it in the called url. So usually you include the links for startpage and unregistered search on your webpage where you have to add the theme parameter in the link. When these applications start the application wizard they take the theme from customizing.

When it comes to web dynpro for recruitiers, admins and managers with EhP4, everything runs within portal where you usually use the portal style handling which hands down the general portal style to all applications for the consistent look and feel.

Kind Regards

Hello Holger,

The WD URL must be called with parameter "&sap-ep-themeroot" and then it should work. Thank you,

Christine
