Resolved Customize Plesk Theme Icons

[Émerson Felinto]

How can I customize the icons in my Plesk panel? (I do not want the changes to be lost if a future update occurs in Plesk. Currently using the Plesk 12.0 skin)

I think that currently there is no official documentation on how to create your own skin. You could check this path, though:
/usr/local/psa/admin/htdocs/theme/icons/32/plesk/
Maybe as a dirty workaround you can create an event "update installed" that automatically overwrites all icons with your individual version after an update installation is finished.

Got it!
Adding support to this would be interesting in the future.

How would I do that?

How would I do that?

Tools & Settings > Tools & Resources > Event Manager > Add Event Handler
Event: "Update installed"
Priority: 0
User: root
Command: Enter the fully qualified path and script name to your shell batch file that contains the copy commands to overwrite the icons.

But again, this is a dirty hack. Normally, production images should not be overwritten. You never know that an update changes, so maybe it changes the path of the images ...

Really!

Perhaps a safer way is to keep a backup of those icons that I can replace again afterwards. Between running the risk of having the images changed to the standard plesk (which is not ugly) and generating a possible 404 error (which could make the use of the panel unviable) I prefer to keep a backup. Given that I can always restore later.

Thank you!
