How about the icon generating script?
Comment by Roger — February 10, 2010 @ 12:55 pm
agreed. I depend on this tool daily… maybe time to open up?
Comment by Jordan — February 10, 2010 @ 1:09 pm
This wouldn’t be nearly as bad if there were other mirrors of Themeroller and a way to get a local copy of Themeroller
Comment by Jordan — February 10, 2010 @ 1:22 pm
I agree, a standalone copy of themeroller would be an excellent tool to have.

Is there a way to implement a theme switcher widget locally, using the theme packs downloaded? Just asking out of laziness…
Comment by Deroude — February 10, 2010 @ 2:26 pm
omg i have been trying all morning to get this working and thought it was my fault and the c# build was broken / detaching my css..
(I couldn’t fathom that the css I downloaded was broken)
Comment by michael — February 10, 2010 @ 2:32 pm
Themeroller was the easy way to get the class names for the various icons. Please post a list with samples and names! For now, I’m reduced to opening the icon file in Photoshop, then getting coordinates from the CSS file and matching them up.
Comment by Matt Rosenberg — February 10, 2010 @ 2:59 pm
Where can I get a copy of the themeswitcher js? Anyone have it?
I hope they’ll making the themeswitcher tool itself easier to theme while they’re fixing things.
Comment by Jason — February 10, 2010 @ 4:36 pm
I realised yesterday after two hours trying to figure out why my custom themes weren’t working
Anyways, there’s an open ticket for this with blocking priority (http://dev.jqueryui.com/ticket/5157#comment:3), hopefully it’ll be resolved soon.
Comment by rgluga — February 10, 2010 @ 5:09 pm
Does Google host the JavaScript that defines themeswitcher? http://jqueryui.com/js/jquery.js is unavailable. If anyone has a local copy, would you post it? Thank you.
Comment by Norman Basham — February 10, 2010 @ 5:48 pm
@Matt Rosenberg – Does the infomation on the planning wiki help you out http://wiki.jqueryui.com/jQuery-UI-CSS-Framework
Comment by Ralph Whitbeck — February 10, 2010 @ 6:34 pm
A link to the source code for the themeswitcher script would be appreciated.
Comment by David D — February 11, 2010 @ 2:20 am
I’m use a custom theme for my sites, I agree with other user say a mirrors for theme roller and a downloadable version.
Comment by Massimo — February 11, 2010 @ 2:33 am
found icons here http://wiki.jqueryui.com/jQuery-UI-CSS-Framework
Comment by suseu — February 11, 2010 @ 3:58 am
I have a local copy of of the theme switcher javascript, jquery.themeswitchertool.js
I posted it on my website if you need a copy -

Comment by Jason — February 11, 2010 @ 4:40 am
It seems like the sensible things to do would be to post the source, if your no longer willing to host it. This is kind of lame
Comment by Michael — February 11, 2010 @ 6:23 am
@Jason, Norman, Deroude & Will We have reenabled ThemeSwitcher
“For those of you that were using the ThemeSwitcher on your site we have reenabled the ThemeSwitcher Tool Widget at http://jqueryui.com/themeroller/themeswitchertool/”
We apologize for inadvertently taking that offline as well!
Comment by Ralph Whitbeck — February 11, 2010 @ 7:27 am
How about keeping up entirely separate versions of your site for several stable releases so that if release X+1 gets buggered, developers can still get to the things they need (like the theme roller) for release X, or X-1. I for one will be grandfathering pre 1.4 jQuery for a while. It is annoying that I can’t get back to a working theme roller in a previous version.
Comment by Trent — February 11, 2010 @ 9:20 am
@Micheal – it’s not that we are no longer willing to host…it’s we don’t want people to waste anymore time with the DB/TR when it doesn’t work. We are working to fix the problems and have this fixed ASAP…please be patient I know this is inconvenient.
Comment by Ralph Whitbeck — February 11, 2010 @ 9:27 am
Massimo, The only thing you shouldn’t be able to do is build a custom theme currently..preexisting themes should still work as long as you downloaded everything that was needed. You should not hotlink directly to a custom theme. Or am I missing something else?
Comment by Ralph Whitbeck — February 11, 2010 @ 9:30 am
It’s been fixed…again we apologize for inadvertently taking ThemeSwitcher down.
Comment by Ralph Whitbeck — February 11, 2010 @ 9:31 am
The ThemeSwitcher has been restored…we apologize for taking it down inadvertently.
Comment by Ralph Whitbeck — February 11, 2010 @ 9:32 am
Hi,
Any chance we can have pictures of how each theme looks (from the package) cause going through 1 by 1 is really horrible
Once again, THANKS FOR ALL THE WONDERFUL WORK you guys are doing!!!
Have a nice day,
SK.
Comment by Shlomikalfa — February 11, 2010 @ 11:38 am
Shlomikalfa, I built this jsbin test to make sure all the themes I downloaded worked before putting together the 1.8rc1 Themes Bundle…you can use this to see what each looks like. Hope it helps.

Comment by Ralph Whitbeck — February 11, 2010 @ 11:51 am
I agree too for a standalone copy of themeroller.
I depend if to work on my project.
Thanks.. and BRING IT BACK NOW! hehe
Comment by Bottazzo — February 11, 2010 @ 11:53 am
@Shlomikalfa – you can also preview all the themes on jqueryui.com/demos. See the themewitcher, top-right. It allows you to switch the theme for all the demos you’re viewing. It also has a small thumbnail next to each theme name as you select one in the drop-down.
Comment by Richard D. Worth — February 11, 2010 @ 12:30 pm
yay themeswitcher back, thanks again for making jquery ui so awesome
Comment by Will — February 11, 2010 @ 1:23 pm
If I may make a suggestion JQueryUI has all of its code for the themes and everything else that you can customize manually by going to Google Code Subversion Repository. You can do the same thing as you did with the theme builder but it is just you have to do it manually. But hey it’s fun!!! The link is below.

Comment by Amen Moja Ra — February 11, 2010 @ 8:13 pm
I really hope themeroller is going to be open-sourced at some point and save us this situation in the future? We could be helping you fix it
Comment by draxil — February 12, 2010 @ 2:22 am
Any eta on ThemeRoller returning? It’s such an awesome tool to generate custom themes!
Comment by DPK — February 12, 2010 @ 2:25 am
Thank you for listen us Ralph.
Comment by Bottazzo — February 12, 2010 @ 2:57 am
Hmmm, ThemeRoller it’s not fully restored.. ok, we will wait for a solution.. good luck man.
Comment by Bottazzo — February 12, 2010 @ 3:00 am
hmpf, is there _any_ timeframe we can expect the custom .js builder to come back? i dont really want to refresh this site every couple of hours to check
i appreciate your work and don’t want to appear nagging, but are we talking about like, days – weeks?
regards
Comment by oli_ — February 12, 2010 @ 6:11 am
I’d like to second everyone’s comment about opening up themeroller. I recall you all stating that you would do so; however, it seems to have stalled.
Comment by luckypapers — February 12, 2010 @ 9:59 am
I miss you themeroller! What am I going to do without you???

I find that your ui examples do not save very well (when using the browser’s save file as html complete ). Saved examples come out “themeless”. Especially in browsers that donot download deep @import css code files. This is a rather annoying occurance and may turn off new users.
The theme builder thing provided a single file example page with all the widgets. Please put that in the download.
Comment by owen — February 15, 2010 @ 7:43 am
Any idea when this tool will be back online?
Comment by Rich — February 15, 2010 @ 8:55 am
Get the themeroller up already! You can’t make people dependent on such a tool and then don’t keep it online…
Comment by Martin — February 15, 2010 @ 11:13 am
All – we’re working as hard as we can to get these valuable tools back online. We’re testing a fix today and if it goes well should have it up within a day. No guarantees, because we can’t put it up unless it gets fixed, but it’s looking like days, not weeks. Thank you again for your patience.
Comment by Richard D. Worth — February 15, 2010 @ 11:55 am
I’m not sure what’s going on here, but I’m using 1.4.1 jQuery and 1.8rc1 jQueryUI and the base theme works, but when I switch to any other theme everything is broken. I just downloaded the themes from the link in this post: http://jquery-ui.googlecode.com/files/jquery-ui-themes-1.8rc1.zip
Here’s some links so you can diagnose:
Base Theme:

Just change the link at the end to insert a theme:

Huzzah! Thank you for fixing this. A thousand thank-you’s to you all for your most capital service.
Comment by Ian — February 17, 2010 @ 10:55 am
hey all jQuery mates, thanks a lot for the fix !
Comment by lourai — February 19, 2010 @ 8:15 am
Does the theme bundle listed at top contain up-to-date themes for UI 1.8 final? (i.e.: jquery-ui-themes-1.8rc1.zip) If so, it would be helpful to update the info. If not, where can a theme bundle be found?
I suggest posting the current theme bundles where developers can find it – ideally in the same place as the UI development bundle. I like to test with different themse, but it is too tedious to download themes one at a time for testing.
Thanks in advance.
Comment by Kevin — April 11, 2010 @ 7:26 am
Ignore my question. Found the themes pack. DOH!
Comment by Kevin — April 11, 2010 @ 7:31 am
@Kevin – no problem, glad you found it. If anyone else is looking, there’s a link here http://blog.jqueryui.com/2010/03/jquery-ui-18/
Comment by Richard D. Worth — April 14, 2010 @ 4:08 pm
Are you going to open source the themeroller or not??? You never answer the question…. this is should be open sourced like the Jquery project.
Comment by Chris — May 7, 2010 @ 10:26 am
@Chris – Yes, the next version of ThemeRoller will be open sourced. Shouldn’t be too much longer. Thanks for your patience.
