HOWTO: Install new themes in xfce

Linux, by jay.

Extract the theme to /usr/share/themes for a system-wide install or to /home/USERNAME/.themes for a single-user install. The path should read something like /usr/share/themes/THEMENAME/xfwm4/ or /home/USERNAME/.themes/THEMENAME/xfwm4/, where THEMENAME is the name of the theme.

To install UI themes:
If it's .tar

CODE:
  1. $ tar xvf themepack.tar

gzipped .tar.gz

CODE:
  1. $ tar xvfz themepack.tar.gz

.tar.bz2

CODE:
  1. $ tar yxf themepack.tar.bz2

Themes should be selectable now in the settings manager.
