## [Version 8.7.0](./theming.md) brings with it a system for dynamic and integrated configuration of the diagram themes. The objective of this is to increase the customizability of mermaid and the ease of Styling, with the customization of themes through the `%%init%%` directive and `initialize` calls.
Themes follow and build upon the Levels of Configuration and employ `directives` to modify and create custom configurations, as they were introduced in Version [8.6.0](./8.6.0_docs.md).
**These Theming Configurations, similar to directives, will also be made applicable in the Live-Editor, for easier styling.
## Site-wide Themes
Site-wide themes are still declared via `initialize` by site owners.
Example of `Initalize` call setting `theme` to `base`:
```
mermaidAPI.initialize({
'securityLevel': 'loose', 'theme': 'base'
});
```
**Notes**: Only site owners can use the `mermaidAPI.initialize` call, to set values. Site-Users will have to use `%%init%%` to modify or create the theme for their diagrams.
## Themes at the Local or Current Level
When Generating a diagram using on a webpage that supports mermaid. It is also possible to override site-wide theme settings locally, for a specific diagram, using directives, as long as it is not prohibited by the `secure` array.
**Following is an example:
```
%%{init: {'theme':'base'}}%%
graph TD
a --> b
```
# Making a Custom Theme with `themeVariables`
The easiest way to make a custom theme is to start with the base theme, and just modify theme variables through `themeVariables`, via `%%init%%`.
| Parameter | Description | Type | Required | Objects contained |
| -------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------ | ----- | -------- | ---------------------------------- |
| themeVariables | Array containing objects, modifiable with the `%%init%%` directive | Array | Required | primaryColor, lineColor, textColor |
# Here is an example of overriding `primaryColor` and giving everything a different look, using `%%init%%`.
```
%%{init: {'theme': 'base', 'themeVariables': { 'primaryColor': '#ff0000'}}}%%
