Drupal Templates

Drupal templates site looks and feels as much as possible like the old MT site. Luckily this is not too hard, so non-PHP programmers can re -create the old styles, so that it can be used on the new drupal templates site. To do this, no need to know PHP, but there is a need to know at least basic CSS coding. Since there are people who do know the way MT templates are built and created, so better stick only to the drupal templates part of the story. That's not a too big problem, because, as long as one understand the way drupal templates uses its themes, will be able to modify little things so that they, look, like the MT styles, but do not have to be the same. After all, this is not an article about stealing; it’s about how to port MT creations to drupal templates. It depends on preferences what teeming method one chooses. This however is far out of the scope of this article, and to stick to the easiest method, in my opinion, PHP template. The PHP template can be installed as any other theme read the shipped install text on how to do this. There are numerous articles on drupal templates that explain in detail how to configure PHP template, look for them and use to organize the drupal templates. This document is not a tutorial on how to use PHP template, after all.

To distinguish more about Drupal templates



Creating a new template under PHP templates is as easy as copy-pasting one of the folders. Rename it to something you like: yp templates for example. The best is to copy the Moveable to Drupal templates folder and paste it as yp templates. Now some technical ballad on the way PHP templates works. Drupal templates hold knows themes, just the way most CMS'es do. Drupal templates have themes to install a theme and the look and feel of the site has changed. But PHP templates are not really one of them. Drupal templates use some fancy coding to create another tinplating system. So it is Drupal templates which are in the theme. All the folders inside the PHP templates folder are Drupal templates. So inside that sub-folder there are some files. Some of them are styles, some images and a few are files. To know enough PHP just open them and move some of the code around. But now there are over to the real stuff: using the style sheet to re-create the MT design is Drupal templates. As said above: there is need CSS skills to do this, if one don't have those, well, post a message on drupal templates or on the support list and tell you've got some money or something else lying around you wish to get rid of. And ask if anybody is interested in receiving that money for the simple task of rewriting the MT CSS. Back to business: drupal templates can have virtually any HTML DOM, but in general it is kind of similar to that of MT. In PHP template, we have sidebars and a main content. Drupal templates use the id node instead of blog and it has some more differences.
