I have installed the Open Restaurant solution manually; I don't know how to use Drush or Git. I want to customize the colors and images etc. but cannot find where to do so. There are no css files except in the "core area" and I can't find any instructions anywhere. Can someone please point me to a guide?

thanks,

Pia

PS I have several other Drupal sites that I have created and manage, all of them I have customized the themes on and figured things out, so I have tried what worked there but so far I am drawing a blank. Can't even get the background image to show...

Hi. Thanks for using Open Restaurant.

To start customizing your site, you need to create a custom theme. A good starting point is to use the Sizzle theme as your base theme and add your custom styles on top of that:

  1. Step 1: Download the starter theme here: https://github.com/openrestaurant/sizzle_custom/archive/master.zip
  2. Step 2: Extract the starter theme to /sites/all/themes such that your custom theme is at /sites/all/themes/sizzle_custom.
  3. Step 3: Go to Appearance and under Sizzle Custom, click Enable and set default.
  4. Step 4: You can now add your custom style under /sites/all/themes/sizzle_custom/css/sizzle_custom.style.css.

Note: Remember to disable cache to see your css changes.

We're actively working on documentation for the distribution. It should be ready for the 1.0 release.

I did this, and the "sizzle_custom" css is blank basically. On the other themes that I have customized, I get the original theme's formatting which I can then change. It's much easier than trying to figure out what elements are which and how they are named. Unless I am missing something? Quite possible.

thanks,

Pia

I'm just wanting to make a slight modification to the existing .CSS.

When I click the "Customize this page" button at the top, I see the CSS button, allowing me to give the block a CLASS or ID, but I'm wanting to find the actual .CSS file, so that I can create a new CLASS or ID, which I would specify as mentioned above.

When I view the Appearance panel, it shows Sizzle 7.x-1.0-rc4 as my default theme, however, when I go to /sites/all/themes folder, it is empty, except for a README.txt file. I've done some hunting through all the common places, and I'm finding no mention of Sizzle or Radix anywhere.

What am I missing?

The sizzle theme is part of the restaurant profile. You can find it at /profiles/restaurant/themes/contrib/sizzle.
