Problem/Motivation

During the discussion of #2349559: [meta] Discuss the organization of subfolders in Classy, many people expressed confusion over the file names used for core templates. In some cases it is hard to understand what a template does from its name.

Proposed resolution

All core module templates should be reviewed and renamed, if necessary, so their purpose can be more easily inferred from their file name.

Remaining tasks

  1. Agree on file names.
  2. Rename all the files.

I reviewed the referenced issue at #2349559: [meta] Discuss the organization of subfolders in Classy, but the only template-naming confusion I saw was block-list.html.twig. Changing template names leads to changing preprocess/process functions (where/if they exist) and might be too much work for too little reward, IMO.

As no work was done here this will be moved to 9.x. If there is an actual proposal of changes it may be moved to 8.1.x.

Marking as duplicate of #2702061: Unify & simplify render & theme system: component-based rendering (enables pattern library, style guides, interface previews, client-side re-rendering). That's a wide-ranging issue, but clearly identified components/templates is part of it.

Version: 9.x-dev » 9.0.x-dev

The 9.0.x branch will open for development soon, and the placeholder 9.x branch should no longer be used. Only issues that require a new major version should be filed against 9.0.x (for example, removing deprecated code or updating dependency major versions). New developments and disruptive changes that are allowed in a minor version should be filed against 8.9.x, and significant new features will be moved to 9.1.x at committer discretion. For more information see the Allowed changes during the Drupal 8 and 9 release cycles and the Drupal 9.0.0 release plan.
