Customizing a Bootstrap theme

By sanlorena on 21 Jul 2017 at 16:12 UTC

I would like to know how to customize a theme.
Question #1: all html elements like header, section, footer etc can be removed from the Drupal interface?
Question #2: I am working with a Bootstrap theme and there is a section that has 3 columns (each with an image and text), but I want only 2 columns with this same content, how/where would I modify this? I am confused when to modify content with block.twig, node.twig and when in the view mode. Also what sections of a page are block, nodes, view mode part of? And with any I can modify this Bootstrap theme?

Thank you!
Sandra

Themes are not edited from the Drupal Interface. Please review Drupal Bootstrap specific documentation @ https://drupal-bootstrap.org/api/bootstrap

Thank you for sharing this link. Now as I am just starting out with Drupal 8, I would like to understand the following:
I download the Bootstrap framework
Create a sub-theme by choosing a Starterkit
For Starterkit I choose the CDN Starterkit - is this a zip file? Where do I find these files?
I create this sub-theme to be able to override the CSS, templates etc. so in this Starterkit I will find all files that I rename like explained in the sub-theming page?
Thank you!
