Re: DSpace 8 not reflecting after customization and rebuilding

[DSpace Technical Support]

Hi,

Since you are running the User Interface in development mode (yarn start:dev), in most situations any changes should cause the user interface to rebuild automatically & display the new changes in a few minutes.  (You should be able to see this automatic rebuild in the window/tab where you ran "yarn start:dev"). 

If that doesn't work, then you could stop the "yarn start:dev" process, and rerun it again.  That will force the rebuild to occur.

If this still doesn't work, then it's possible you are editing files which are NOT being loaded.  It could be you are editing files under a theme directory, when that theme is not enabled in your "config.dev.yml" file (which holds the dev configurations).  Or it could be some other similar mistake.  But, we'd likely need more information on what you are trying to do, in order to help out.

Hi,

I stopped production mode using pm2 stop dspace-ui.json

Then I launched the development mode using                      yarn start:dev

Thereafter, I customized the colour , logo and home news

To my surprise, there is no change from the default theme colour, setting and etc.

Please, I need help. I have successfully customized in DSpace 7.5 without issues. What could be the problem?
