Themes and Plugins

Themes

UConn currently has four central themesĀ as well as a number of custom themes and child themes created for specific UConn sites.

Plugins

To ensure the security and stability of Aurora, plugins are limited to set number determined by theĀ Aurora Governance Committee. Plugins do get added regularly, but must be thoroughly tested and reviewed for compatibility with existing plugins.

Custom Themes and Plugins

Custom development is allowed for the Aurora WordPress server, but each plugin and theme, as well as any update, will have to go through Code Audit before being allowed in the system. Contact webdev@uconn.edu if you're interested in starting a custom project to get a development environment, and to be added to the developer contact lists.
