Yea I got a similar issue. I tried putting: *= require store/screen in the store/all.css manifest and that didnt work. I tried to precompile the assets and that didnt work. Any ideas?

[rubyfreak]

Yeah, Spend about a week rewriting all the CSS for Spree.
Spree is beautiful out of the box, but ANY customization is really difficult.
I would think there would be an admin area that has some editable properties like:
Background color, background image, theme, etc.

I ran into this problem as well when I upgraded to Spree 1.x.

It looks like this override in spree_blue_theme:

app/overrides/add_store_menu_to_top_header.rb
Deface::Override.new(:virtual_path => 'spree/shared/_nav_bar',
                     :name => 'add_store_menu_to_top_header',
                     :insert_after => 'li#search-bar',
                     :partial => 'spree/shared/store_menu')

Is breaking due to that partial being removed from core in this commit:

I wish the people who maintained core would also maintain spree_blue_theme/spree_blue_sass_theme to keep them working together...

So now that Spree is at 2.1.5 -- how do I get this blue theme working? I just can't it seems

[JDutil]

This theme is no longer maintained I would not recommend using it.
