Drupal Main Theme page - A Suggestion for Improvements
by Trae McCombs 02 Dec '05

02 Dec '05

Hi all, If you go to this page: http://drupal.org/support You will see a variety of information for someone looking for support. However, if you go to the main Drupal Themes page, you are simply confronted with a bunch of themes to download. I suggest we create a Launching page for the Main Themes page too. We should have at least the following: 1. Prominent Large Image pointing to the Themes Gallery (Think Drupal News Letter "Ad" on the front page of Drupal.org) Perhaps links to themes hosted elsewhere. (offsite from drupal.org) 2. Themes Help area that lists the following links: - Basic Themes Help: http://drupal.org/node/39451 - Manage inconsistancy in themes: http://drupal.org/node/37156 3. IRC Channel This should simply mention the #drupal-themes irc channel on irc.freenode.net. 4. Mailing list info Info about this mailing list. 5. Other stuff... ... I'm not sure who is the person that would or does have the permissions to do this. I would not mind doing it if Dries gave me access to the site to do it. Thanks for your time, Trae -- Trae "occy" McCombs || http://occy.net/ Founder - Themes.org // Linux.com CivicSpaceLabs - http://civicspacelabs.org/

Modules CSS styles...
by Trae McCombs 02 Dec '05

Hey gang, yesterday I was working on the eventfinder stuff and I had a thought. The biggest problem a lot of people who are new to drupal have when trying to theme a module is, they have to constantly try and override the css that is shipped with an actual modules css file. This is a pain in the butt for those new to Drupal. What makes the most sense to me is... Module developers shouldn't even be in the business of formatting the output display of their module. That should be the job of the theme, and themers. If they want, maybe they could include something like: eventfinder-sample-css And in their readme to that module they can tell people to simply rename their file to: eventfinder.css and then it will activate that style the module developer might have wanted. Some of these styles mess things up. soo... I really don't think the modules should have styled output personally. <flaim suit on> reply away!
