+I have a question.
+
+Where should I put a custom theme other than `/usr/share/ikiwiki/themes/`?
+
+I put `.pm` plugins on `~/.ikiwiki/Ikiwiki/Plugin` and it works well.
+
+How would I go about not tampering with the root filesystem to install a theme?
+

+
+Also, I have another question:
+
+I have a complex theme I'm working on, and it doesn't even have a `style.css`, because it is about editing `.tmpl` files and relying on the bootstrap files, so I want to know if the theme plugin will understand this structure:
+
+```
+/usr/share/ikiwiki/themes/
+└── my-theme/
+ ├── basewiki/
+ │ ├── bootstrap/
+ │ │ ├── css/
+ │ │ │ └── bootstrap.min.css
+ │ │ ├── js/
+ │ │ │ ├── bootstrap.js
+ │ │ │ └── bootstrap.min.js
+ │ │ └── fonts/
+ │ │ ├── glyphicons-halflings-regular.eot
+ │ │ ├── glyphicons-halflings-regular.svg
+ │ │ ├── glyphicons-halflings-regular.ttf
+ │ │ ├── glyphicons-halflings-regular.woff
+ │ │ └── glyphicons-halflings-regular.woff2
+ │ └── index.mdwn
+ └── templates/
+ ├── page.tmpl
+ └── whatever.tmpl
+```
+
+**Edit:** no, it doesn't. When i change theme in the config to `my-theme`, the engine only uses the `templates` subfolder under `theme/my-theme`, and not `basewiki`. So the workaround is doing like [IkiStrap](https://github.com/gsliepen/ikistrap) proposed, suggesting the user to alter the `underlaydir` and `templatedir` configs instead of choosing a theme via the old fashioned `theme` config.
+
+This feels more like an overhaul than a theme for me, could we clarify what is a theme, a template, an overhaul, a change to the look and feel, a change to the frontend, a change to the design, etc.?
