D7 multi site theme

By Jeff Greenberg at 05/04/2013 - 11:54

I have a site mysub.mysite.com, a D7 site, set up as multisite.
I have its sites directory at sites/mysite.com.mysub and its settings are
found and work.
In that directory I have a themes directory, and in it, a mytheme directory.

Having cleared cache via the admin panel and drush, mytheme is not shown in
/admin/appearance. If I move the theme to sites/all/themes, it is listed.

Display Suite Preprocess fields

By Jeff Greenberg at 03/30/2013 - 13:21

I have the following line in THEME_preprocess_node

$vars['node']->field_breadcrumb['und'][0]['value'] =
theme('breadcrumb', array('breadcrumb'=>$breadcrumb));

In Display Suite, I added a preprocess field. The machine name of the field
is field_breadcrumb,

The field appears in the Manage Display settings, but its contents don't
appear when the display is rendered.

theme in www.silverstripe.org

Hi all,
few days ago I visited silverstripe CMS's site. I liked the theme of this
site.

paper unevenly) for content body and borders of tables like in that site.

how could that be achieved? its result of css programming or simply
arrangement of images as background?

thank you

Re: [themes] Questions about appropriateness of Design Studio

By elwell1 at 03/20/2013 - 22:31

1. Is it a good fit for redoing a category page and product display layout for Commerce?

2. Is there a situation where you would not use it?

3. Given a situation where a 3rd-party widget will be on the page, and its module puts it where you don't want it, such as the social Share button, can it 'grab' that?

Thanks.

Question about including third-party code libraries

By Brad Chesterfield at 09/25/2012 - 13:29

Hello everyone,

I have a quick question regarding Bootstrap and a Drupal theme I am developing and planning to add to drupal.org. The theme uses Bootstrap, and I was wondering what the rules are regarding including the Bootstrap CSS and JS files within the theme itself. Is this acceptable to do? Or do I need to leave it out and instruct users to manually download it and add the files in the necessary folder within the theme like I have seen some other Bootstrap themes on drupal.org do?

Thank you very much.

Replicating page.tpl.php in D7

By Jeff Greenberg at 09/09/2012 - 19:13

I have the following code in my module in D7. My intention is to have my
custom template loaded in place of page.tpl.php for this specific page, and
to have the template file in the module directory rather than having
page--mypage.tpl.php in the theme directory.

The problem I'm running in to is that after the template is loaded, it
complains that none of the page variables (logo, etc) exist.

Corralling a stray button

By Jeff Greenberg at 05/28/2012 - 21:50

In D7, in template.php, I'm hooking preprocess_page and setting a $vars[]
variable = theme_button.

In a block, I have this:

<?php global $signup_button; ?>
<div id="signup"><?php print $signup_button; ?></div>

The button appears in the page source outside of those enclosing divs.
What am I doing wrong?

Floating blocks in a responsive theme

By Jeff Greenberg at 05/28/2012 - 11:35

I'm using a responsive theme. On the home page I have a large image, and a
block of text that gets floated (not in the css float sense, just the
general term) over the image.

I'm thinking about the mobile presentation, and that I will want the block
of text to appear above or below the image in that context. And that leaves
me completely confused as to how to position the block.

I'm using my_sub_theme -> tundra -> arctica. The documentation for
actica/tundra is lacking, though there is much built into them.

D7 adding a themed item to a region

By Jeff Greenberg at 05/28/2012 - 10:46

I am displaying a large image in a front-page region. Currently I hook
process_region in template.php, set a variable = theme('image'), and print
it.

I'm thinking that rather than printing it from the hook, I'd rather add it
to $page[my_region_name] and let it get printed when the template prints
render[my_region_name].

Where do I add it, or what do I call to add it? I tried doing things in
the hook like $vars[page][my_region_name][content][] = $my_themed_image,
but that doesn't work.

Re: [themes] session variable in page--front.tpl.php

By Ken Rickard at 04/19/2012 - 09:31

Drupal uses persistent session storage -- in the database -- which is what
lets your login persist. Session data is stored too.

The simple way around this is to also store a session expiration time for
your display. If that time has passed, clear both session variables and
reset them.

session variable in page--front.tpl.php

By Bert Van Kets at 04/19/2012 - 03:12

Hi,

I'm using D7 and need a way to show an animation only once when a
visitors comes to the site.
I am using a session variable in my page--front.tpl.php file and if it's
not set, it shows the animation. Code snips below.
For some reason though once the animation is shown on a PC, it is not
shown again at all. Even when the browser is closed and I wait a day.
When I log into the site and log out, the animation is shown fine.

<a href="http://groups.drupal.org/files/menu_0.png" title="http://groups.drupal.org/files/menu_0.png">http://groups.drupal.org/files/menu_0.png</a>

And this is what i need when people click in <<'musical
services'>>, isn't a hover or on:click. I mean, when
musical-services page loads, it loads the submenu too.
submenu
<a href="http://groups.drupal.org/files/submenu.png" title="http://groups.drupal.org/files/submenu.png">http://groups.drupal.org/files/submenu.png</a>

How do i do this, any tutorial or something?
Thank you, Jorge.
 

How to print a Taxonomy term hyperlink?

By Elijah Osborne at 02/16/2012 - 22:59

I can't figure out how to print one of the Taxonomy term links so it is
hyper and not just a string of text.

I can get the string of text printed by using:

<?php print $node->taxonomy[2]->name; ?> View attachment "01Capture.PNG"
to see how I got the information via dev module.

Using the Themer Module and clicking one of the Taxonomy term links
produces different information.

banner frame and logo

By Gabriele Giorelli at 12/28/2011 - 09:13

Hello

I mean by banner frame in my e-mail the frame that is at the top page and
that contains the logo. Please let me know if drupal has a different naming
convention to designate this area. I suppose it should not be called header
because this area corresponds to the one just between the banner frame and
the content. Correct me please if I am wrong

Now back to my question, I want to make this frame thicker because the logo
is large and does not entirely appear now. I don't know if this change
depends on theme itself that I am using. Please also let me know if this is
true.

some questions about themes

By Gabriele Giorelli at 12/16/2011 - 04:45

Hello

Is there a theme that is configurable and customizable? Let me tell you the
background of my question: I want to let users customize their view like
gmail does.

My 2nd question is about changing themes. Whenever I change the theme, I
lose all the dimensions of the frames and menus. I don't know how themes
were developed in drupal, but changing from 1 theme to another should not
ideally hurt the look of the site.

And my 3rd question is about sub-theme. I keep seeing this term especially
in Zen theme.

Moodle and drupal

By Larry E. Lutz at 12/11/2011 - 12:00

@Roger. Minor correction - Drupal and Moodle are two entirely different
things. I've used both extensively and really like Moodle. There is a Drupal
module (only available for 6.x) that allows for a single signon between a
Drupal and a Moodle site, but that's about the extent of the integration. I
have to admit that, if I wanted to set something up for a school, I'd go
with Moodle. It has all the academic stuff baked in. There's really no need
to mess with Drupal.

Theme where text is read-only

Hi,

I am looking for a Drupal theme where content/ text in the website should

this is even possible, if yes then please provide suggestions.

Thanks in advance!

theme dependencies

By Bert Van Kets at 09/01/2011 - 17:09

Hi all,

is there any easy way to know what modules a theme is depending on?
I have a theme from a Drupal 6 site with a multitude of installed
modules. When I use the theme on a plain vanilla Drupal install a blank
page is installed.
I really do not want to go through all the tpl files to see what modules
are referenced. How is a problem like this tackled?

Thanks.

All page titles identical

By Agon S. Buchholz at 08/19/2011 - 23:31

Hi,

I'm currently develping a custom theme for a mid-sized Drupal site
(6.22) and ran into a bizarre problem: Suddenly all page titles are
rendered with the exact same string, but not (never) with the actual
page title. The string is the localized version of "Image galleries".

This behaviour affects as well nodes and taxonomy term pages as views,
panel pages and even administrative pages, altogether around 50,000
pages. The string appears as well in the node title (<h1 class="title">
... </h1), as in the browser's page title (<title> ...

Adding custom link tags to page head

Hello all,
I've been learning how to code themes including using the .info file and the page.tpl.php and node.tpl.php and the variables that can be set. So, I want to add a link in the head section of the page, above the body tag. There is the variable $header that seems to handle all of this. This is set in the template.php file. So what is the best practice for hardcoding a link. I want to link to a foaf file.

<div id= vs <div class=

By Michael Donahue at 03/03/2011 - 10:11

Greeting and Hello,

I am working on some custom menus for a custom page. I currently have three
menu bars that have the same background components but different content. I
was thinking that I should be using one class instead of different <div IDs
for each. As I am looking at it, a single class with attribute selectors
seems like a more flexible solution. Anyone have any thoughts on this?

TIA

implementing CrossSlide in Drupal 7

found a head area in html.tpl but am unsure if this is the place.

How do I disable the "readmore link" to allow a full posting to show and

because of it not being disabled my post also disappeared and I was not able
to view it. This is for the front page of a website.

CSS questions I don't seem to be able to find on Drupal.org...

Hello and greetings,

I am trying to understand the internals of themes and have run into a few
questions that seem to be related. I was hoping to find some enlightenment
from the list. TIA for any replies.

I found references to several classes that I can not find in any .css files
on the order of: <li class="menu-114">. While I was trying to find the .css
file that contained these class definitions, I notice that in the page
source, in the marinelli theme for example, many calls to css file that have
references attached to them, i.e. links.css?lgkgm7. Can someone explain what
this means?
