# Manage themes

> Search, sort, filter, and configure theme usage settings to enforce brand guidelines across projects in the Widget Studio.

Themes allow you to enforce brand guidelines across your projects. By defining specific colors, fonts, and reusable components, you ensure that all widgets created in the Widget Studio remain consistent with your brand identity.

This article explains how to access, organize, and configure usage settings for your themes.

## Access the Themes dashboard

To access the Themes dashboard, click **Studio** > **Themes** in the left sidebar.

From the dashboard, you can organize your view:

* **Search:** Use the search bar to find a specific theme by name.
* **Sort:** Click the **Sort** icon to order themes by **Modification date** (newest to oldest or oldest to newest) or alphabetically (**A to Z**, **Z to A**).
* **View:** Switch between Block view (grid) and List view using the icons next to the sort options.
* **Filter:** Open the **Filters** sidebar to refine the list by **Project** or **Status** (Active/Inactive). Click **Apply** to update the list.

## Configure theme usage and defaults

Administrators can control how strict theme usage is for each project. You can require users to apply a theme or allow them to create widgets without one.

1. On the **Themes** dashboard, click the **settings** (cog wheel) icon.
2. In the **Theme Usage & Default Themes** panel, locate the project you want to configure.
3. Select the usage mode:
   * **Optional:** Users can choose whether to apply a theme when creating widgets.
   * **Mandatory:** Users must select a theme to create a widget.
4. (Optional) Select a **Default Theme**. This theme will be pre-selected for users creating new widgets in this project.
5. Click **Save**.
