friendica (DFRN) - Link zum Originalbeitrag

Looks like #Friendica doesn't allow you to migrate an account like you do on #Mastodon , unless I'm missing something. I'm not ready to delete my old account quite yet, unless I can link it to this one.

Speaking of Friendica, is there any info available on making themes? I want to try something on Friendica, I'll prolly do a local install while trying to make a custom theme, assuming I can find some documentation on theme building. From what I've seen there's a little about making a copy of an existing theme and modifying it, which is likely the direction I'll go, but I do want to know my options, especially about what a theme can modify.

Ok, so things are going well enough, I'm missing a ton of friends as I have no access to my old Friendica friends list, though I have copied over some from my Mastodon that look better on Friendica such as most of the artists I follow.

Really the only problems over here that the #admin could fix would be theming, I can't set up custom colours or anything else, when you choose custom from the drop down menu, nothing happens.
Also password changing doesn't seem to work... Well, it might as I'm not sure what my password is, I tried to change it, got an error, but when I tried to log in from my phone later, the password in my password manager, the original assigned one, doesn't work any more, so no idea what's going on with that.
There's a little odd behavior when adding friends, on Venera when I searched for one, the left column would have an add button and the body would have the request button, here you only get the body. Also RSS behaves weird, they throw back an error, but work any how in most cases, but some get a complete failure, like fall out of #Friendica level error.

I guess this place'll do fine since those are relatively minor problems, we'll see what happens as I add more RSS feeds, though the work I have to do to sort and set the update frequency is annoying, and I'm apt to leave more of a load on the server than I want to.
