Theme development

I'm new to Drupal and have spent the last 20 minutes searching for an answer to this question. Is it possible to change what the $header variable displays? I have an existing site that I'm trying to create a theme for (copied from garland). However, the header that's being displayed doesn't match my existing site.

Thank you!!

frontpage:
[ Home | Create Content | Information ]

after click on "Create content":

[ Home | *Create Content*(clicked) | Information ]
{ Create Story | Create Page | ...}

i want to have the sub-navigation (expanded create content) in a new line. -> for every "main-point".

has anybody an idea how to solve that?

// like the navigation of the german amazon page http://www.amazon.de

Hi all, wanted to see if anyone out there had a convincing argument either for or against PHPTemplate vs Smarty Templates? I've used Smarty Templates in the past and really liked the simplicity and straightforwardness of the system. I guess, really, I was curious... do I limit my options using Smarty? It seems that PHPTemplate really gives you the ability to theme every different aspect of the site - for instance having an index page themed different that other sections of the site. Is Smarty more of a one size fits all solution?

How is it possible to have a view that lists nodes with the same terms as the current node displayed?

The module relatedviews could be the answer, but is not working.
Then maybe handled manually by the arguments in the view module. But how is this done?

Could someone guide me how this would be possible.

I have several terms related to one content type and all of them are terms that it need to filter between.

Any help is much appriciated

Hi,

I have enabled the site name and slogan in the theme and globally by checking the boxes but the site name and slogan still do not show up. Does anyone know what I need to do the enable site name and slogan?

Thanks,

Hello guys,

I was wondering if anyone could help me with getting flatforum working in the Litejazz theme. I brought this up under paid services forum, but haven't received any response yet. There's $10 in it for whoever wants to help me with this.

I think my problem lies with template.tpl.php in the litejazz directory... the joined date and total posts function of flatforum is working ok, but the forum node view doesn't look any different apart from the additional two fields.

Any ideas?
