I want to put a specific help message on admin/settings/admin. I am creating
a theme that I plan to upload to the drupal projects board for free use. So
I want it to tell people that it can be colorized.

I actually tried using hook_help (so it either doesn't work or I'm doing
something wrong...(I'd bet the later)).
-------------------------

I tried in hook_help() in the template.php:

<?php

function hook_help($path, $arg) {
  switch ($path) {

    // Help info for the administration theme page

    case 'admin/settings/admin':
      return '<p>' . t('This theme is integrated with the color module! To
customize this theme go to the <a
href="/admin/build/themes/settings/accolade">settings page</a>. ') . '</p>';
  }
};

?>

Does anyone know what I did wrong?

Thanks for your help,

I'm pretty sure that hook_help() is only available within modules, and not th=

Besides which, if you wanted to implement hook_help(), the function=20
name would be changed to mymodulename_help(). Defining a function=20
called hook_help() wouldn't work -- that function would never be=20
called by Drupal core.

Check out the module developers tutorial on drupal.org, which might=20
clear up some confusion about how to implement hooks.
