From what I’m finding the “Meta Branded” them is not open source and available for install? Love the look of the “All Categories” header page as attached below. Just wondering if this is a plugin available? Or if this is all customized? [image]

You can install Search Banner and How do I replicate the meta banner links? - #12 by Arkshine to create something similar.

All Categories is standard on side bar. [Screenshot_20240721-181015]

I think they were referring to the styling on the All Categories page itself (The arrow on the sidebar was probably to indicate how to navigate to that page)

Ok though that styling looks to be one of the default styles.

Thanks Dan. The snip-it is from the discourse.org forum. It is the “Meta Branded” them. Just wondering 1) is the Meta Branded theme available as open source? (which I’m assuming from some older posts that it’s not. And 2) was wondering about the search widget/header that appears when you click the “All Categories” - if anyone happens to know if it’s available anywhere? Or if it’s custom? Thanks

[image] Westcan: was wondering about the search widget/header that appears when you click the “All Categories” - if anyone happens to know if it’s available anywhere? Or if it’s custom? What about the components in the first reply you received? Those work well to build something similar.

[image] Westcan: is the Meta Branded theme available as open source? It is not and I’m afraid we have no plans to change that.

Is that so? It only takes a few simple CSS but the hardest thing is the background, is there any similar background CSS code?

Using the 2 Customization > Theme component will give you this.

The links are customizable. See the 2nd link in post number 2 for the link buttons. Very nice. Those in the pic are default sample.

@Aaron_Walsh very nice find.
