Change colour/theme of sharepoint 2013 mysite across the enterprise

Question

I was wondering how I change the MySite theme from the default blue/white look to the Oslo look, or one of the other default themes?

Answer 1

You should either have a feature stapler for your my sites, like explained here:

• Customizing MOSS 2007 My Sites within the enterprise

If you want to change the theme for existing MySites you could do it by code like so:

ThmxTheme oTheme = ThmxTheme.Open(siteCollection,"_catalogs/theme/<nameoftheme>.thmx");
oTheme.ApplyTo(oWeb, false);
oWeb.Update();
