How can I change the theme name in WordPress and where?

Can I also change the folder name theme1244 in public/wp-content/themes/theme1244 without having problems in the future?

Step 1: Firstly go to wp-content/themes/ folder. And then rename your theme folder to whatever you want.

Step 2: Open your theme folder and open style.css file. In top part of style.css you will see theme name. Rename it and save changes.

Step 3: Go to Wp-admin/appearance/themes and activate your theme under new name.

If you are using child/parent theme and you also rename parent theme folder&name, so after Step 3 you should additionally change parent theme path (template field) in child theme’s style.css.

note : renaming your theme will stop its automatic updates, you should do it manually in the future.

Try this, using mkdir:

if (!file_exists('path/to/directory')) {
    mkdir('path/to/directory', 0777, true);
}

Note that 0777 is already the default mode for directories and may still be modified by the current umask.

Android – How to change theme for AlertDialog

In Dialog.java (Android src) a ContextThemeWrapper is used. So you could copy the idea and do something like:

AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(new ContextThemeWrapper(this, R.style.AlertDialogCustom));

And then style it like you want:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <style name="AlertDialogCustom" parent="@android:style/Theme.Dialog">
        <item name="android:textColor">#00FF00</item>
        <item name="android:typeface">monospace</item>
        <item name="android:textSize">10sp</item>
    </style>
</resources>
