Manually add theme to ES
-
I have ripped a theme from a custom build so that I may add it to a stock Pie image and run into a permission error when I try to copy the theme folder to my new pie. I extracted the folder "Supreme Retro" from /etc/emulationstation/themes/ and have it copied to my new pi @ /home/pi/.emulationstation/themes/ for now but when I try to copy the folder to the correct dir on the new system it says I don't have permission and the properties are set to 755. Can someone tell me how to either change the properties to 777 so I can drag and drop via SSH session (WinSCP) or how to copy the folder via terminal to bypass the permission. I'm not too savvy with the command line so detailed instructions or copy/paste would be greatly appreciated!. thx

cd /etc/emulationstation/
sudo chmod u+rwx themes

Themes can be copied to either
/etc/emulationstation/themesand/home/pi/.emulationstation/themes, they're read by Emulationstation from both locations. If you already have the theme folder in/home/pi/.emulationstation/theme, that's all you need to do. -
