Wow... i'm frustrated. Does anyone have advice on creating a fixed width theme from scratch? I'm finding the process to be very frustrating as I'm unfamilar with a lot of the HTML and CSS objects that drupal creates. As a result when I try to change the style of something it won't take effect because the object has already been defined in drupal.css etc.
Is there a process that some of you have adopted in creating new templates?
I Would appreciate insight into fixing these pages:
I just got my drupal 4.6 up and running. I'm very new to this drupal let alone creating themes and modules. I have gone through the secontion on Developing for Drupal, but I still have no clue why I would need the engine and once I have the engine and downloaded, how do I use it? I can understand the part about modifying an existing theme...but to create new theme with the engine is where I got confused. What's the purpose of the engine, why need them, and how to use to help me create new theme? I'm currently using Dreamweaver Studio 8 to edit my website...but like to try Drupal.
I would like to change the label "Title" in my add flexinode form. Is this possible?
To be clear - I am not talking about the custom fields I have added but the uneditable required field "Title".
I just want to change the label for this field to something other than "Title".
I have successfully created a flexinode phptemplate but this has no impact on the form.
It's more or less 1 week that I'm tryin' Drupal, and I've discovered some interesting things.... but..... which is the best way to create a button menu for the navigation in the upper zone of the page?! I mean, I've created my module but I didn't find a way to modify or create the navigatio bar....
I can create a new block with all the node on the side, but is not the same -_-'
For some strange reason the layout of my website is different when you're using IE vs. FF on the PC (untested on other OS's).
I'm using the Democratica theme, and when a firefox browser views the page, the taxonomy appears just after the submitted by section. When using IE, the taxonomy info appears just after the HR following the content.
