mor·pho·gen·e·sis, a theme template for theme designers

What is mor·pho·gen·e·sis (for xoops)?

Resized Image
As the name symbolizes it, it is meant to be the body structural part of a default xoops theme template serving as a canvas starting point for theme designers to develop their designs under specific XOOPS standards and W3C compliance.

It is completely based on the default theme of XOOPS 2.3, which is based on Zeta Reticuli by Leo. The process I did was to take the graphical part out and leave just the wire frame keeping the architecture done by Leo.

Leaving the way open for theme designers to start the metamorphosis

------- read more -------

Why is it important?

First because it is done looking forward to keep themes compatible with the new coming XOOPS versions and it fully supports the use of XOOPS most recent features which are (taken from the release notes of XOOPS 2.0.14, http://devteam.xoops.org/releases/xoops-2.0.14.html ):

Quote:

New blocks positions

Support for the new blocks positions must be added to themes: if you place blocks in the bottom and do not see them, this may be because your theme is too old. Most of the times, such support can be added easily by copying the theme.html portion that inserts the center top blocks just after the <{$xoops_contents}> division, and changing the variables so the duplicated code inserts the bottom blocks (see the default theme for an example).


Other things IMPORTANT to take notice of, starting from XOOPS version 2.0.14, which will let theme designers make the most out of their design (module developers should also have the new classification in mind):

Quote:

Templates overriding

Designers can add custom templates to their themes, and those will be used instead of the default ones. To exploit this feature, templates have to be created in subfolders of the themes duplicating the default folders structure and removing the "templates" part:

* To overload system_userinfo.html template located in modules/system/templates/system_userinfo.html you have to create your custom version in /modules/system/system_userinfo.html
* To overload system_block_login.html template located in modules/system/templates/blocks/system_block_login.html you have to create your custom version in /modules/system/blocks/system_block_login.html

Output resources overriding for developers

To allow theme designers to customize images or stylesheets, you have to use the new theme class and xoImgUrl templates plug-in.

* Scripts and stylesheets can be declared to XOOPS using the theme class addScript and addStylesheet methods. The theme instance is available after the inclusion of header.php by using the $xoTheme global variable, and in a template variable of the same name:
<{$xoTheme->addStylesheet('modules/newbb/style.css')}>
* Images and medias URLs have to be generated by using the xoImgUrl plug-in in your templates:
reply

Output resources overriding for designers

Designers can also provide custom versions of most output-related resources using a mechanism similar to the one available to templates, for modules that support this.

* To create a custom stylesheet that will replace modules/newbb/style.css, create your customized file in /modules/newbb/style.css
* To create a custom image that will replace modules/newbb/images/reply.png, create your customized file in /modules/newbb/images/reply.png


Also there is an additional display option of the columns using the lcr/lrc/clr feature which can be configured in the head section of the theme.html using the combination of your choice. This will permit you to have the blocks display in 3 columns and not the traditional 2 columns.

Second, because the objective is to keep the themes under W3C standards as most possible.

Third, to create a quality standard in XOOPS themes, providing theme designers the necessary tools to start off a theme according to the direction XOOPS is taking. We always must look forward to be better.

The change may seem much compared to the old default theme, but looking closely at it, it is more logical than complicated with a very notable perfectioning of the code of the work done by Leo. For example, those of us who have been here several yrs and had the opportunity to experience using themes for XOOPS version 1.3 (not a very nice experience I must say), it was really great when XOOPS 2 themes came out. Starting from now a new XOOPS theme version should be created and that is what I am looking after in the establishment of mor·pho·gen·e·sis

Status of mor·pho·gen·e·sis: Alpha

[TODO]: - Consider taking away the table it has - Test - Do any fixes needed

This is a project for all of us, to undergo a process where changes are constant. You are all welcome and encouraged to make part of it.

Thank you.

What can DesignContest.net do for you?

You might have noticed that a few months ago XOOPS went through some rebranding - it has changed it's logo and overall style. The logo was the result of a contest hosted on DesignContest.net. An identity needed to be developed to convey the large XOOPS end-user community, development community, as well as the object-oriented CMS itself. A contest on DC gave Xoops the choice of many diverse and creative logos from over 20 professional designers.

DesignContest.net(DC) is at the forefront of a revolutionary outlook for online design business. Considerably in the flow of Web 2.0, DC depends on collaboration between clients (Contest Holders or CHs), designers, and a quick-to-respond administrative team. Projects typically include logo and identity design, web design, print design, and more. However right now the community of DC is looking into the possiblity of extending its services to skin design for XOOPS CMS. In cooperation with XOOPS administration DC is planning to provide the designers with the detailed materials on general functionality of XOOPS and its skinning.

So, why go with DC as opposed to a marketing or design firm? There are over 5,000 registered members with DC who are located across the globe. However, only about 2% (affectionately called the "Design Team"), are privileged to work on paid projects. The Design Team is an international network of budding freelancers, design students, and professionals. As the core of the community, the Design Team must meet requirements set by the administration. A review board pours over Design Team Applications looking for exceptional design skills, understanding of the community, and an ability to work in a team environment. Only upon approval can Design Team applicants begin interacting with clients.

Contests are easy to set-up and manage. A CH pitches a project idea to the administration. After review and deposit of prize funds, the contest begins and designers start submitting entries. During the course of the contest, the CH is able to make comments on entries and typically posts suggestions or requests. A few days proceeding the contest deadline, the CH can choose a winner. The winning designer delivers source files to the CH and, after the client has agreed that the files are satisfactory, the winning designer receives prize funds. Typically, contests last for 2-3 weeks with an average of 12 entries.

Find yourself asking, "It is a real Design Team creating real solutions for real clients. The investment must be high, right?" Wrong - prizes range from $300 to $500. A Marketing or Design Firm may only start at $500, depending on the project. DC, however, mostly targets budding freelance designers, who need exposure and portfolio experience to help propel them into the industry. Aside from freelancers, the Design Team includes designers from countries with a low cost of living, and established/professional designers who simply enjoy the spirit of competition.

DesignContest.net is home to a win-win opportunity for both designers and design-seekers alike. With its talented international community, DC is able to offer high quality services for extremely competitive pricing. Choosing DesignContest.net to create your solution means opening the door to an abundance of collaborative talent.
