There isn't for the new "themes"....you need to create a "Child" style of the theme you wish to edit, set that as the default and turn OFF its parent style, then you can edit the stylevars on the child theme.

Thank you for your response mark ..

So you meane like that ??

[Mark.B]

Almost...the "Child Of Pink" should literally be underneath the pink theme. Though it may well work where it is.

So like that below ?

I think now it's ok

Yes, now you can edit "Child of Pink"

You should also uncheck the boxes next to any themes/styles you do not want your regular users to be able to use.

As an Admin you will always see all choices in the style drop-down box.

Merenguista, I believe what he's trying to say is it wasn't showing up because you had used the drop down box for "themes" instead of a custom style.

Also, I thought this thread would be of much help to you when your styling you page. The information is not found on the site for most people and I haven't been able to locate it anywhere else. It includes all the style variable names and definitions and also a few tips to get you started. Hope this helps you.
