Hi Ingo,

I'm not sure if I understand correctly, but you should be able to assign ressources through a component reference.

Have you tried to use

<property name="VT_FTR_JAVASCRIPT['add']" value="component://my-component/vendors/myspecialscript.js" />

<property name="VT_FTR_JAVASCRIPT['add']" value="/my-theme/vendors/myscript.js" />

in your Theme.xml? This works OOTB with ftl files, should also work with JavaScript, no?

HTH,

Hi Aditya,

I already create my own theme by extending an existing one. It works but I feel 
quite uncomfortable by creating a new theme for the purpose of adding a single 
.js file to an existing theme. I was hoping there would be a better solution 
and handle those things via the plugin.

Thanks,
Ingo

Hi Ingo,

You may refer to documentation in themes.adoc[1]. Though I am not sure if this 
is the right solution, maybe you can create your own theme extending the 
existing one[2]

Hi everybody,

is it possible to add a javascript/css from an addon to an existing
backend theme.

Case: I have created a plugin that provides various reports via portlets.
Now I want to use the portlet logic to show those reports on different
places like accounting, catalog a.s.o. Therefore I want the necessary
JS/CSS files loaded for the whole theme - not for the plugin only.

Long time ago I would have added those scripts via VisualThemeResource
:) If possible I do not want to touch the original theme and I want to
avoid creating a new plugin just for the purpose of providing those filed.

Every idea would be highly appreciated.

Best regards,
Ingo
