separating "main" content from "other" content

By BradM on

Right now at my site, sometimes it's hard to distinguish where the main content ends, and where the additional content begins.

Generally the main area looks like this:

main content
(pager)
additional content

I like the paging style I'm using, but it can be easily glanced over. So rather that muck about changing it, I was wondering if it is somehow possible to insert a graphic below the main content, in order to visually separate it from any additional content in the main window.

Query String in theme not working for guests

By danielb on 
<body class="<?php print str_replace("/", "-", $_GET['q'])." ".$body_classes; ?>">

Hi have put the above line in my template so that I may style certain pages just based on what they are, but this only works for logged-in users... for some reason $_GET and $_SERVER and all that just don't get a value if the user is a guest!!

Can anyone suggest a workaround ?

IA: grids, wirefremaes and multiple content regions (so confused..)

By fresh-off on

Hi!
I'm having a difficult time understanding how to translate my design/wireframe layout into a drupal theme.
wireframe images:
homepage wireframe
Content page wireframe
Portfolio wireframe

focusing on the homepage, I'm assuming my left and right columns would be stories and blog posts, respectively. The problem is, i cant figure out how to split content (blogs, stories, nodes) into multiple columns/regions. I've seen posts, and in themes how the sidebars can be split into different regions/columns - but i havent seen how content can be placed into sidebars.. i've only seen how blocks can be placed into sidebars.

Most drupal themes seem to follow this IA pattern:

---------
|       |
---------
|   |   |
|   | C |
| M | O |
| E | N |
| N | T |
| U | E |
|   | N |
|   | T |
|   |   |
---------
|       |
---------

but as I have clients who have a myriad of information architecture needs, i looking for some flexibility.
Possible examples:

--------- ------------- -----------------
| | | | | |

What causes this to happen?

By icon123 on

Hi,

I was wondering what might cause these links to run into the bottom buttons. See screen capture link below. This is from using My_Drupal Impact theme with IE7, although I have heard reports that it looks the same in FF. Thanks,

Theme the Username

By anthonylicari on

Hi, I'm looking to theme the 'username' by adding various things around it, for one an if then statement for an online now status of the poster which needs to pull the node creater and then check against the table that shows online now status. I also want to add a link to add or remove the person to your buddylist.
