hi,
Access the fat partition, extract the file to the root directory and confirm the change.
If you are using windows os, you can access the volume with bootice.exe

You must create a ventoy directory in the partition,  and put ventoy.json and the theme  under  ventoy directory.

Doesn't work.  Instructions are not clear, but I have in correct places, will not show up whatsoever?

Create Folder: ventoy
Create txt file and rename txt in json
ventoy.json

{
       "theme": {
              "file": "xxxxx/theme.txt"
       }
}

Yup, finally figured it out.  The instructions are really vague as to what to do, so I'll make it clearer for all.

1. Create folder on USB next to .ISO images called 'ventoy' - This should only contain the file 'ventoy.json', nothing else!

2. Put your theme folder here also, I'm using 'Vimix' theme, so I now have 2 folders - one 'ventoy', and one 'Vimix'.



3. Edit the 'ventoy.json' file to point to your theme, but DO NOT include the folder 'ventoy' in path.  So mine is:

{
       "theme": {

              "file": "Vimix/theme.txt"

       }
}


Here is my .json file, edit as you wish    This will also put version number colour in menu @ orange (#ffa600), so change if you desire also.

  ventoy.zip (Size: 266 bytes / Downloads: 42)


Works just fine now  Thx.

scaramonga's steps work to set a grub2 theme, however I can't seem to get the icons to display? (picture attached)

Is this possible? If so, how?

Thanks!

You need to set the "class" for each ISO (where "class" means the png file you want for that ISO).

structure example:

ventoy/ISOs/Linux/xxx.iso
ventoy/ISOs/Windows/xxx.iso
ventoy/persistence/4gb.img
ventoy/themes/Vimix/<theme-files-here(fonts,images)>
ventoy/themes/Vimix/icons/linuxmint.png
ventoy/themes/Vimix/icons/ubuntu.png
ventoy/themes/Vimix/icons/xxx.png

ventoy/ventoy.json contents:

Code:

{
    "control": [
        { "VTOY_DEFAULT_MENU_MODE": "0" },
        { "VTOY_DEFAULT_SEARCH_ROOT": "/ventoy/ISOs" }
    ],
    "theme": {
        "file": "/ventoy/themes/Vimix/theme.txt",
        "ventoy_top": "95%",
        "ventoy_left": "2%",
        "ventoy_color": "#ffffff",
        "fonts": [
            "/ventoy/themes/Vimix/dejavu_sans_12.pf2",
