Themes: x2 theme for xoops 2.0 totally upgraded!

Posted by: w4z004On 2003/2/5 9:24:32 7586 reads

Later of work a ton , and with the colaboration of aitor and a little of clean up of eric, the new X2 Theme are enhanced.

well, [HERE] can download the x2t theme

[ HERE ] can see the x2t theme working. (not added the double columns.

the instalation is really simple :

1 - Unzip in a local hard disk.
2 - Be sure that the xoops 2.0 have all the modules installed.
3 - Go to the theme manager and browse the theme ( x2t[xx-xx-2003].tar.gz )in you local hdd, proceed.
4 - into preferences change the theme to x2t theme.

5 - enjoy.

New features :

NEW LAYOUT: when install the theme go to see that the center-center blocks go to the bottom (many people request this) and the center-left and center-right remain in the top, with the module info in the middle.

OLD LAYOUT: into the EXTRAS dir too have a skin.html file that if you replace into the theme skin with copy and paste obtain that the center-center blocks appear in the top (like how the old x2t theme).

NEWS IN TWO COLUMNS: later of installed the theme with the theme manager into the news need upload or copy and paste the files news_index.html and news_item.html that are into the EXTRAS dir to the respective places and obtain a news with 2 columns.

are you uploading the .tar.gz file ?? or you try upload the zip file ??

you need UNZIP this.

and upload only the x2t[18-1-2003].tar.gz file

too check that you php have the Zlib extension enabled.

Hi w4z004,

Is there a reason for some tags in your skin.html file to end with " />" ???
Examples:

instead of

or

instead of

??? (mostly "meta" and "img" tags are affected)

Also, a quick tip for every user here:
in order to correctly render you html file under a wysiwyg editor, simply replace every occurences of "<{$xoops_themecss}>" with "./style.css" and "<{$xoops_imageurl}>" with "./images". Later, just do the inverse operation to have your file XOOPS compatibles

I think this / at the end of the tag is for the xhtml standard. There you have to escape those tags which have no closing tag like bla ..

i can't send to the school of w3c because the url are broken

http://www.w3schools.com

the theme respect 95% the xhtml standard.
need only the last clean up but the / at the end is the xhtml standard.

Remember that now x2 use xhtml transitional how standard.

OK, others have answered this... but, just to hear myself talk...

You are familiar with the way tags open and close in HTML.
Such as Link

However, some tags don't have closing tags in HTML, like the meta tag example above.

In XML/XHTML you must always have a closing tag.
So putting a /> creates a closing tag that works for XHTML without breaking HTML browsers (since they simply disregard the *extra* "/" in the tag).

Hope that helps. At the very least, I enjoyed hearing myself speak.

In fact, I was already thinking about "xhtml compliance" even before anyone answer to my question, but I just wanted to be sure

[EDIT] Never mind, it worked, i unpacked the .tar file from the tar.gz and uploaded the .tar

Ok, it is quite simple to install a new *existing* theme, but is there a simple procedure, a few elementary steps to follow to *create* a new one ?
I'm working a skin.html file, adding some graphics, some simple javascript, and will soon add some Smarty tags, but then what ?
Should we package all the files we used in a tar.gz file and uploading it to the db will simply work or are there any other things to do ? Is there no risk if we upload and install a theme that doesn't work, how do we come back to the default one for example ?

I have to install *all* the modules first ?

Is this going to be a restriction with all themes ?

I tried uploading the theme and it just returned to the admin menu without apparently doing anything. Yes I have --with-zlib.

No, you don't need to install modules first.
If a module does not exist, templates for that module will not be installed.
