Drupal Installer - CSS suggestions
by Trae McCombs 23 Feb '06

23 Feb '06

Hi gang, I have spent about 30mins going through the css for the installer. In general, it's not very pretty and hard to read things. I put in little spacing here and there to help with things, as well as a wee bit of color. Please check this out: http://drupal.org/node/48732#comment-75934 You'll see my suggestions there. Please let me know if I need to do something to get these changes in.... I don't know what I should do. Thanks, Trae -- Trae McCombs || http://occy.net/ Founder - Themes.org // Linux.com CivicSpaceLabs - http://civicspacelabs.org/

fancy theme mod help
by Erik B. Ebright 14 Feb '06

14 Feb '06

Hey Plp, 1st big thanks for helping me out with the drupal theme Q&A. I have used the fancy theme for my site http://rootsnetwork.org, and thought I would share it with you. Also there is one super quick question that I have, and that is how can I remove the white space in the block title tab area. Really I just want to make it match my bkgnd color, and not white. Any help where I would change that in the block.css file? Here is quick link to the file for your personal reference http://www.rootsnetwork.org/v1/themes/fancy/blocks.css or maybe it's in http://www.rootsnetwork.org/v1/themes/fancy/style.css Thanks SO MUCH! -Erik E>

Extra custom theme settings
by Rowan Kerr 10 Feb '06

10 Feb '06

According to http://drupaldocs.org/api/head/function/system_theme_settings I got the impression that defining a <themename>_settings() (along with <themename>_features()?) function would allow extra fields to be inserted on admin/themes/settings/<themename> page but that doesn't seem to be working for me. I put _features() and _settings() in template.php but nothing seems to be happening. I'm probably just overlooking something obvious at the moment. What I'd like to do is add an option to allow re-ordering of the different properties of node and comment through the settings. So that the site admin could define an order of title, submitted, terms, content, links... or title, content, submitted, terms, etc without having to create a new theme or mess with .tpl.php files. Anyone have suggestions?

RE: [infrastructure] loads of new themes: lots of thoughts :)
by Steven Peck 05 Feb '06

IF you type up a new description forward it to me and I'll update it for you. As to brnaching.... if you see the branch in cvs, then drupal.org should package it bout every 12 hours. If something didn't go right, then I think you will need Dries or Steven look at it. Don't delete your 4.7 branch if you already have it, that would mess up the scripts. ________________________________ From: infrastructure-bounces(a)drupal.org on behalf of Ken Collins Sent: Sat 2/4/2006 6:08 AM To: A list for Drupal infrastructure maintainers (eg. drupal.org, CVS,mailing lists) Cc: A list for documentation writers; themes(a)drupal.org Subject: Re: [infrastructure] loads of new themes: lots of thoughts :) Thanks. Some time today I'd like to type up a new description. Maybe I can forward the HTML to someone to edit. But right now I need to figure out why my CVS tags did not branch this to 4.7. I had thought that some cron job might have run last night but it's still tagged as a CVS download in my project page. Thoughts? - Ken On Feb 3, 2006, at 10:06 PM, Steven Peck wrote: That is btw a really nice theme.

That is btw a really nice theme. What do you need edited? ________________________________ From: infrastructure-bounces(a)drupal.org on behalf of Ken Collins Sent: Thu 2/2/2006 6:07 PM To: A list for Drupal infrastructure maintainers (eg. drupal.org, CVS,mailing lists) Cc: A list for documentation writers; themes(a)drupal.org Subject: Re: [infrastructure] loads of new themes: lots of thoughts :) Ber, I'd like to help any if I could.

formatting text
by josh on 03 Feb '06

03 Feb '06

I fixed the formatting problem... but I suspect it is a bad hack :( function _myfunctions_latest_blog_entries($listlength, $userid) { $sql = "SELECT * FROM {node} n, users WHERE n.type = 'blog' AND n.uid = $userid AND n.status = 1 AND n.uid = users.uid ORDER BY n.created DESC LIMIT $listlength"; $result = db_query($sql); while ($anode = db_fetch_object($result)) { $anode->body = _filter_autop($anode->body); $output .= theme('node', $anode, $teaser = FALSE, $page = FALSE); } return $output; } It wasn't calling the filter.module - so I forced it to [ $anode->body = _filter_autop($anode->body); ] before it went to theme it... is this wrong?

creating rss autodiscover
by Laura Scott 03 Feb '06

03 Feb '06

I have a site with a custom front page using front_page module. As a result, I do not have the main RSS feed autodiscoverable on the home page. I'm wondering if there is a way I can make it so using either page.tpl.php or in the front_page code itself. I'm a bit in the dark on RSS autodiscovery standards, so any tips any of you may have would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
