I am very new using drupal which you would know from my questions. Yes, I will seperate navigation from the content of the 60 plus pages. I understand this. Some one suggested to use panels for all these inside pages. I can use 2 column layout. Left for content and right for navigation. Question is in my understanding of this concept. This means should we create 60 such panel pages with 2 column layout? some content on left column is static and some comes from the views. OR should ww use 2 column theme and create 60 plus basic pages? I believe if we use pannels then I don't need a theme for inside pages. I have pge.tpl.php for the home page.

Chris, I will get the book. Thanks for your suggestion. I have page.tpl.php theme copied and modified from Zen. In Drupal, for the home page, I enabled system noode_view and created a variant for the HOME page with a selection creteria for front page and 3 column layout panel. This is now overwriting the templates content area. Our other inside pages of the static website have 2 column layout.There are over 60 such pages with left side being content and the right side is the navigation. I am trying to understand if I need another template for these inside pages on Drupal and the relationship of panels with the inside template for over 60 pages? What is the best way acheive this functionality?

Drupal definitely isn't something you will get up to speed with in a short period of time. I think you really have to work with it every single day and make it your focus. If it has to be in Drupal for whatever reason than you have no choice but if it's just for tabs, I don't get it. Maybe WordPress or something would be easier and quicker. Drupal kicks butt though and I will never touch WP again. The best book for me that I reference daily is the Pro Drupal Development book. It's a big yellow and black book and covers everything you need or might want to learn. Good luck and you definitely have plenty of help here so always ask.

theme question from a newbee
by vibanu 18 Nov '13

18 Nov '13

We are moving from stactic HTML to drupal 7. I have our theme for the HOME page that is page.tpl.php which has a header content area and footer. For the conenet area I am using 3 column stacked page layout. The layout of the sub pages is different from the HOME page. Mostly all sub pages have content on the LEFT side and navigation on the right hand side. Should I have to create another theme that would be applied to the sub pages? What is the suggested way to acheive this? Would you know of any good videos to demonstrate this? Thanks in advance!
