Zero Point

Zero Point (ZeroPoint) is a versatile, responsive Drupal theme developed by Dr. Radut. Combining a clean appearance with extensive customization options, ZeroPoint gives site builders the freedom to create attractive, professional websites without unnecessary complexity.

Whether you are building a blog, corporate website, community portal or multilingual project, ZeroPoint provides a flexible foundation that adapts to your content and visual identity.

Version 2.x introduces a significantly modernized implementation for Drupal 11.4+ and Drupal 12, with updated theme architecture, refined responsive layouts and improved configuration options.

Key features

  • Flexible page structure: One-, two- and three-column layouts, configurable page width, adjustable sidebars and numerous block regions.
  • 12 color palettes: Choose from coordinated predefined styles or customize individual colors, including links, menus and interface elements.
  • Customizable typography: Five font families and three font-size options.
  • Content presentation: Standard, Zebra rows and Cards layouts for compatible Views displays, with configurable spacing and card columns.

  • Update-safe customization: Load your own local CSS file from outside the contributed theme directory.

Lightweight foundation with PureCSS

ZeroPoint uses PureCSS, a compact, modular CSS framework providing responsive grids and essential interface components.

PureCSS is bundled locally with the theme, eliminating the need for an external CSS service. ZeroPoint requires no separate base theme and uses modern JavaScript for its interactive features.

Layouts and content presentation

ZeroPoint offers flexible page widths, configurable sidebars and multiple regions for organizing content, navigation and supplementary information.

For compatible Views displays, choose between three presentation styles:

  • Standard: A clean, traditional content listing.
  • Zebra rows: Alternating row backgrounds for improved visual separation.
  • Cards: Responsive card layouts with configurable columns and spacing.

These layouts can be configured without rebuilding your Views. Compatible Aggregator listings also support these presentation options.

Colors, typography and visual customization

Choose from 12 predefined color palettes: 0 Point, Sky, Nature, Ivy, Ink, Orange, Sangue, Lime, Plum, Velvet, Clean (green) and Clean (blue).

Additional color controls let you personalize menu backgrounds, link states, page elements and icons. You can also configure font families, text sizes, rounded corners, themed blocks and decorative elements.

A comprehensive example stylesheet is included, with optional customization examples for layouts, content elements and additional interface styling.

Slideshow and multilingual websites

The integrated responsive slideshow supports up to seven configurable slides, with headlines, descriptions, image alternative text and links. Choose Full-page or Half-page image presentations and control where the slideshow appears.

ZeroPoint supports multilingual websites, right-to-left languages and language-specific logos. Slideshow links also support language-aware internal paths and translated content.

Modernized for Drupal 11 and 12

Version 2.0.1 also includes security hardening, improved multilingual URL handling and additional compatibility and bug fixes.

Compatibility: Drupal 11.4+ and Drupal 12.

Upgrading from 1.x: After upgrading, rebuild Drupal caches and re-save the theme settings. Review any existing customizations and migrated settings.
