Theme development

Hi everyone - first post. Very new to drupal, starting out with Drupal 7. I've gotten an intro to theming and template suggestions here: http://pingv.com/blog/a-peek-at-drupal-7-theme-system-changes but I've run into problems attempting to create a template override for the content region. I want to override the region.tpl.php file, but only for a specific content type.

I always have questions and need to participate on the groups.drupal. But while I am at work, the site always trigger spam filter. I tried posting from several terminals and still having the problem. It looks like the ip address has been spammed or something. Please refer me to the appropriate where I can get this resolved. I am posting this from home...

Sorry for posting here....

Thank You,

I'm referencing the Drupal Markup Style Guide g.d.o wiki in the Definitive Guide to Drupal 7 and it hasn't been updated in a couple years so i wanted to give all interested parties, especially HTML5 folk, foreknowledge to update it (or link it to a d.o equivalent?).

Advice is sound and it's the most comprehensive take i've seen from a module developer's perspective, so that's why i'm providing the link: http://groups.drupal.org/node/6355

Hey guys,

Does anyone have experience using: http://drupal.org/project/posterous ?? know how reliable the module is with d6/d7?

ps...why does the captcha appear after I hit the 'save' button? or am i just being stupid?

I been with drupal for quite some time, havent used other cms's on market but often i heard D is one of most harder to do and learn. Compering to WP for example i was often tempted to try and learn wp as sometimes it seem development of sites was too slow in drupal and in the end its all about time.

Hello! I'm using D6 and i'd like to be able to do that via a module or a theme.
Thank you.

Different templates depending on URL aliases in drupal7?
visiting url:mysite.com/login,loading template not page.tpl.php,but is login.tpl.php.
How to implement above function?
some code $variables['template_files'][]...in drupal 6 can solve this problem,Why this method won't work in drupal 7?

Hello! I wonder if it is possible to specify additional properties to special form elements in form api (see forms_api_reference.html)?
for example recently i had to theme a form button. i needed a regular button to become an image.
at first i've changed button type from 'submit' to 'image_button' and though image_button type had #src property it didn't have #align property which is required for positioning the image. so i had to toss out the idea of changing a button type and render the whole button on my own like this:

I'm 100% new to creating Drupal themes, so please bear with me. I'm getting errors before I even enable my theme, and I have no idea why.

First, I read through http://drupal.org/node/171194 & http://drupal.org/node/171205, then made a .info file that looks like this:

name = Litmus
description = Litmus is a theme by Devon Young, intended for experimenting and learning how to create Drupal themes.

screenshot = litmus.gif

core = 7.x
version = "7.x-3.x-dev"
engine = phptemplate

regions[header] = Header

I was wondering is there a module or a feature in views where that user can edit a content in a view instead of going to find that content that is being used in view.

Hi Everyone!

Since this is my first LA Drupal discussion, please forgive me if this is the wrong place for such post...

I have been working on a social media share bar for a blog I am working on.
Facebook and Twitter buttons open a post to window.
Comments button shows number of comments and will jump to anchor tag on the node.
Email button opens email program with a link and generic message.

I used views with row style set to node to display all posts as a home page with comments on the individual node only.

If I bother you because I'am using the wrong forum, please forward me to the right one.

Hi, at first, let me mention that I'am new to Drupal but have experience in web. I've tried to look for a solution to my problem, both via Google and drupal.org. No success.

In Drupal 7, I try to add a new region. The result: Undefined variable: foo even though I have defined foo in the info-file with the regions[foo] = Foo

We are trying to build multilingual sites for United Nations entities using Drupal7. We are still looking for the best modules/practices to accomplish a multilingual website. In wordpress, there is WPML and in Drupal there is the i18n which is still not available in 7. Anyway, please feel free to post and add comments to this discussion, it would be very helpful.

Cheers

Hi everyone,

Would anyone happen to know of anyway to tell what the menu name is while using theme_menu_tree? I need something like this to test against for theming purposes.

themename_menu_tree($tree){
If($menu_name == 'navigation'){
//do something different
}else{
//or return the standard output
return '

<?php
print $tree
?>

';
}
}

I would like to offer my sincere apology to the Themer groups here on Groups.Drupal.Org and to this community in general ... I meant no disrespect to anyone. Being a non-artist I have the highest regard for those who can do what I cannot; create beauty in web designs and other visual art forms. Likewise as a programmer I have an equally high regard for all web developers and the difficulty of the work we do.

If I build a Theme that uses no PHP or GPL'd JavaScript but does incorporate PERL code in the template would that PERL code need to be GPL'd?

I realize of course this would mean that the hosting installation would have to have PERL enabled on their server (not a normal Drupal setup) but I don't think that is the same as "requiring a 3rd party proprietary program" since PERL is open source and quite common on many hosting services.

... but templates are a special case, because they are combined with data provided by users of the application and the combination is distributed. So, we recommend that you license your templates under simple permissive terms.
