You probably will be unable to do this.

Most likely, you install the newest stable release (ie 2.1.10 or released yesterday 2.1.11). The patch that you want to apply was made in 2006 for ejabberd version 1.x. The brief look at sources shows that they have changed substantially enough to break the patch.

If you were using a compatible version, then you would need to get the source files for your ejabberd, and recompile the changed files after applying the patch.
But from your question, it seems that you are unfamiliar with the source patches, so the patching may be difficult to impossible to you anyway.

You could file a feature request in JIRA mentioning this patch, so that developers would bundle the required functionality into the program.

As I should've guessed, HTML formatting makes the copied patch useless. It can be downloaded from

Sorry for any confusion.

The command to apply the patch is:

user@host /usr/local/src$ patch -p0 <theme.patch
