Built in theme not found

[commandodev]

Hi,

The sphinx website has a section on theming which seems to be talking about the next release: http://sphinx.pocoo.org/theming.html#builtin-themes. I've used it to build the docs for my project stargate http://boothead.github.com/stargate/ locally, but the build failed in rtfd. Would you guys be able to update sphinx, or are you waiting for an actual release?

Cheers,
Ben

Hey,

RTD should support theming. It's been in Sphinx for a while now. If you look at the build output of your project: http://readthedocs.org/builds/boothead/stargate/1496/ it looks like you didn't include the theme files inside of your projects repository. If you go ahead and bundle them with the project, it should work fine.

Let me know if it doesn't.

Cheers,
Eric

Oh, I see what you mean. In the latest http://sphinx.pocoo.org/latest/theming.html it has the pyramid theme.

Hrm. I'm not sure about running on a pre-released version of Sphinx. If the trunk is pretty stable I would think about supporting it (I want to use the websupport package from 1.1 as well). Let me think about this a little more.

[commandodev]

Yeah that's the one I meant. I could try adding it in I guess and take it out when sphinx is released.

Cheers,

I broke it again... This time I added the html_theme_path option in conf so I think there's something else going on.

Same here. I added a theme (kr theme) in my docs/_themes dir and I set the html_theme_path but it does not work:

Looks like this is working now? At least I see a theme in your project. Did you do anything to fix it, or did it just start working?

[rubik]

Yes, now it works great. It just started working, I don't know why, but now is ok. I think the issue is closed.

Thanks.
