Org mode version 8 (or later) is required.
If such a version is not bundled with your Emacs, install one from ELPA.
This is a list of available HTML themes for Org mode, which you can use right now!

“This is awesome. I love it!”
– Rainer M Krug
“This is awesome!!”
– Mehul Sanghvi
“This very nice html theme. […] I cannot use another emacs-theme than your emacs-leuven-theme, and it is going to be probably the same with your html theme!”
– Joseph Vidal-Rosset
“Thanks a lot for sharing […] the wonderful Bigblow theme. I create lot of specification for other team members to use. It has always been a trouble to share and maintain such spec. Now, I can create a much neater spec which is available for the team’s reference as a webpage.”
– Shankar R.
“I like Bigblow the best. I’ve exported most of my Org files using this theme and published them within my company’s intranet. Thanks for sharing this wonderful package!”
– Richard K.
ReadTheOrg is a clone of the official – and great! – Sphinx theme used in the Read The Docs site. It gives a beautiful and professional style to all your Org docs.
Thanks to its creator(s)!
What people are saying about ReadTheOrg“OMG. The ReadTheOrg theme for exported HTML from org mode files is eye wateringly beautiful. Thank you!”
– Rob Stewart
“It is fantastic, so beautiful. I will switch several of my pages over to this theme.”
– Carsten D.
“That is incredibly impressive. Thanks for this.”
– Noah R.
“Thank you! I enjoy your themes. The best ones I’ve ever found.”
– Kang T.
“Awesome theme. Wonderful job. You’re doing a wonderful thing — it will enable people (at least those who use Emacs and Org mode) to put together on-line reference works in a much-more usable fashion than is currently available.”
– D. C. Toedt
“Extremely useful.”
– Thomas S. Dye
“This is amazing, I’ve been looking for something like this for a LONG time! I will share.”
– Edward H.
I’ve written a demo page for the themes that provides a maximal working support of Org mode syntax.
Please see the Org mode refcard page for full examples of headings, code, admonitions, footnotes, tables and other details.
Using a theme from the theme gallery for your own Org documents is very easy:
#+SETUPFILE:
directive in the preamble of your document (to include the necessary CSS and JavaScript files).
You can either use an URL of the following type for the “setup file” of your chosen theme:
#+SETUPFILE: https://fniessen.github.io/org-html-themes/org/theme-NAME.setup
(where NAME
is either bigblow
or readtheorg
)
or, if you cloned or downloaded the Org-HTML themes project – to get no dependency on an Internet connection –, use a (relative or absolute) path to the local “setup file” and copy the src
folder from the cloned folder into the same folder as the file you want to export:
#+SETUPFILE: PATH/TO/GIT/REPO/org/theme-NAME-local.setup
org-html-export-to-html
or with C-c C-e h h
.You love those themes, but you still would like to override particular HTML tags? Some examples do follow…
Before doing that, though, if you think it really is an improvement that could serve other persons as well, including me, you’re invited to submit your change…
Change the background code blocksHere’s an example to insert into your Org documents:
# Change the background of source block. #+HTML_HEAD: <style>pre.src{background:#343131;color:white;} </style>Unset body width limit of ReadTheOrg
Solution provided by Malcolm Cook:
#+HTML_HEAD: <style> #content{max-width:1800px;}</style> #+HTML_HEAD: <style> p{max-width:800px;}</style> #+HTML_HEAD: <style> li{max-width:800px;}</styleContribute to the project! Report issues and enhancements
