Overview

The Theme File Editor module provides a web-based interface for viewing and editing theme files directly within the Drupal administrative UI.
With its built-in file browser and syntax-highlighted editor,
this module makes it easier for site administrators and developers to manage custom theme code without requiring direct server or FTP access.

  • Edit files with syntax highlighting for improved readability and fewer mistakes.
  • Save changes directly from the interface โ€” no FTP or SSH required.
  • Lightweight, in-browser editing experience designed for quick tweaks and maintenance.

Use Cases

  • Provide site builders with a convenient way to edit templates or CSS during development.
  • Work in environments where direct file system access is restricted or inconvenient.

Requirements
