Hi,

I’m ready to work with Atomik theme, but if I place the (renamed)Atomik theme folder in Application/theme and than modify the page\_theme.php (namespace and getThemeName) I get this error:

Argument 1 passed to Concrete\Core\Page\Theme\Documentation\AtomikDocumentationProvider::\_\_construct() must be an instance of Concrete\Theme\Atomik\PageTheme, instance of Application\Theme\Atomik902\PageTheme given, called in /var/www/html/c902/application/themes/atomik902/page\_theme.php on line 122

Elemental theme copy works in this way, is it something that I missed, or Atomik needs some other ways?

Try getting rid of the following:

public function getDocumentationProvider(): ?DocumentationProviderInterface  
{  
return new AtomikDocumentationProvider($this);  
}

I haven’t tried this, but you shouldn’t need the documentation.

But asked him to try.

I got it working doing the following:

- download github repository: [https://github.com/concrete5/concrete5](https://github.com/concrete5/concrete5)
- copy concrete/themes/atomik folder to application/themes and make necessary folder, file and class renamings (check the @afixia guide)
- make another ‘build’ folder in application/themes
- move concrete/themes/atomik/main.js file to build/assets/js
- move concrete/themes/atomik/css/scss folder to build/assets
- copy concrete/themes/atomik/css/presets/default folder to build/assets/scss/presets
- delete main.js file and css folder from atomik
- follow steps to compile js and css from the new guide:

1. npm install
2. npm i @concretecms/bedrock
3. npm i laravel-mix
4. npm run production

Then make any style changes in the build/assets/scss files and recompile.

That’s it. Seems to be working so far… 🤞

One minor thing though - if I put my build folder somewhere else on the computer and use a direct path to the theme in the webpack.mix.js, the main.js file gets copied together and inside all those path folders, not just itself.
