Jupiter without icons: How to return to paper-lantern in all accounts

[Mise]

We have received quite complaints from our users about the new Jupiter deafult theme.

Absence of icons confuses many users who were comfortable with the PaperLantern icons, while others are not aware of the option to choose Paper Lantern again.

Mostly they complain "Why you change my theme without asking?"

As a suggestion, these forced changes applied to final users in their UI experience, even without some previous message to try a new theme, this a bad focus.


Meanwhile, please, How to set the Paper Lantern theme for all accounts, and how to avoid this can be replaced by Jupiter theme in future updates?.


thanks

You set cPanel Theme to paper_lantern in packages you use.

It's important to note that while this works for now, once Paper Lantern is officially removed the accounts will automatically be updated to Jupiter.

understood, thanks.

Anyway, in such case I hope the Jupiters icons will be present. Many users recognize "their things" because the icons presence. Sure the change will be for better but the icons would be very needed

thanks!

BUT WHY? Whats Wrong with Paper Lantern?

Jupiter is way worse... Talking about going from a Horse... to a Donkey...

I totally agree with Paulus... why does paper Lantern have to go away just because some jackhole thinks their new theme is better?

paper lantern works and is more aesthetically appealing. There is no reason to make it go away, give people a choice..
I have had nothing but complaints form my people about Jupiter, it's junk to them and they want Paper Lantern back. Personally, I agree with them.

All you've done here is ensure I turn off updates at 107, and never update again.
